Localization lengths and Boltzmann limit for the Anderson model at small disorders in dimension 3 (Q2481420)

The author proves lower bounds on the localization length of eigenfunctions in the three-dimensional Anderson model at weak disorders. The results are similar to those obtained by \textit{W. Schlag, C. Shubin} and \textit{T. Wolff} [J. Anal. Math. 88, 173--220 (2002; Zbl 1032.60060)], for dimensions one and two. It is proved that with probability one, most eigenfunctions have localization length bounded from below by \(O (\frac{\lambda^{-2}}{\log\frac{1}{\lambda}})\), where \(\lambda\) is the disorder strength. The correction to the lower bound of order \(O(\lambda^{-2})\) on the localization length is only logarithmic, while the bound obtained in the paper cited above for \(d=2\) is of order \(O(\lambda^{-2+\varepsilon})\), for any \(\varepsilon >0.\)
