Abstract: The parabolic Anderson model is the Cauchy problem for the heat equation on the integer lattice with a random potential $xi$. We consider the case when $xi(z):zinmathbb{Z}^d$ is a collection of independent identically distributed random variables with Weibull distribution with parameter $0<gamma<2$, and we assume that the solution is initially localised in the origin. We prove that, as time goes to infinity, the solution completely localises at just one point with high probability, and we identify the asymptotic behaviour of the localisation site. We also show that the intervals between the times when the solution relocalises from one site to another increase linearly over time, a phenomenon known as ageing.

Review text

The parabolic Anderson model has been proposed by \textit{P. W. Anderson} [``Absence of diffusion in certain random lattices, Phys. Rev. 109, 1492--1505 (1958; \url{doi:10.1103/PhysRev.109.1492})] to describe electron localization inside a semiconductor. Mathematically, it is a Cauchy problem for a parabolic partial differential equation which involves a random potential which is a collection of independent identically distributed random variables.NEWLINENEWLINEThe authors study the asymptotic behavior of the solution and a complete localization result is stated as time increases to infinity. They use a point process approach and give some results on the negligible paths of the random walk.
