Abstract: A random phase property is proposed for products of random matrices drawn from any one of the classical groups associated with the ten Cartan symmetry classes of non-interacting disordered Fermion systems. It allows to calculate the Lyapunov spectrum explicitly in a perturbative regime. These results apply to quasi-one-dimensional random Dirac operators which can be constructed as representatives for each of the ten symmetry classes. For those symmetry classes that correspond to two-dimensional topological insulators or superconductors, the random Dirac operators describing the one-dimensional boundaries have vanishing Lyapunov exponents and almost surely an absolutely continuous spectrum, reflecting the gapless and conducting nature of the boundary degrees of freedom.
