The Anderson Transition: Time Reversal Symmetry and Universality

Abstract: We report a finite size scaling study of the Anderson transition. Different scaling functions and different values for the critical exponent have been found, consistent with the existence of the orthogonal and unitary universality classes which occur in the field theory description of the transition. The critical conductance distribution at the Anderson transition has also been investigated and different distributions for the orthogonal and unitary classes obtained. [S0031-9007(97)

“…Furthermore, in ref. [9] the correlation-length critical exponent was found to be compatible with that of the 3D unitary Anderson model [41]. Here "unitary" refers to the symmetry class of the model in the Random Matrix Theory (RMT) classification of random matrix ensembles [42], which is shared by the staggered Dirac operator [35].…”

“…Despite progress over the last decades, the subject of Anderson localization remains an active area of research. The lack of quantitative analytical results has meant that numerical investigations [5][6][7][8][9][10][11] have provided a significant role in understanding the Anderson transition 12-14 .…”

“…Two different numerical studies reported two different forms of P*(g) for the same system, 9,10 and it was found that the difference originates in the use of different boundary conditions ͑BC's͒. 11 The idea that P*(g) might depend on the BC's indeed appears very natural after the discovery that spectral statistics, and in particular the energy level spacing distribution P(s) exactly at the MIT, do depend on the BC's.…”
