    The possibility of absence of diffusion in certain random lattices (i.e., the famous Anderson localization) is formulated and proved as a theorem on non-negative, omega-dependent random perturbations \(V\) [of a periodic (or, more generally, quasi-periodic) continuous Schrödinger operator \(H\)] which preserve a spectral band. The theorem states that there exists an interval \(I\) (containing the lower edge of the band) where the perturbed spectrum is pure point (for almost all omega). The proof relies on exclusion of the absolutely continuous spectrum via establishing the exponential decay of the non-ergodic, finite-size (box) resolvents, followed by the standard (yet briefly outlined) recursive multi-scale analysis. As long as the key technical result of the paper concerns the integrated densities of states, certain specific properties of the Floquet eigenvalues of \(H\) are assumed.
