Localization for random unitary operators

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We consider unitary analogs of 1dimensional Anderson models on defined by the product Uomega=DomegaS where S is a deterministic unitary and Domega is a diagonal matrix of i.i.d. random phases. The operator S is an absolutely continuous band matrix which depends on a parameter controlling the size of its off-diagonal elements. We prove that the spectrum of Uomega is pure point almost surely for all values of the parameter of S. We provide similar results for unitary operators defined on l2(N) together with an application to orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. We get almost sure localization for polynomials characterized by Verblunski coefficients of constant modulus and correlated random phases.
