The Anderson model is the prototype for the study of localization properties of quantum states of single electrons in disordered solids. The Anderson localization is that high disorder leads to localization of electron states. The usual approach to the Anderson localization is that such information is encoded in the decay properties of the corresponding Green's function. In the paper, the authors provide a new approach which is a mathematically rigorous implementation of a multiscale analysis for the Anderson model at high disorder based on finite volume eigensystems. The eigensystem at a given scale is used to derive information about eigensystems at larger scales. The main result of the paper yields Anderson localization (pure point spectrum with exponentially decaying eigenfunctions, dynamical localization) for a random Schrödinger operator. Also, the connection between the eigensystem multiscale analysis and the Green's functions multiscale analysis is investigated.
