Abstract: We present a new approach to the eigensystem multiscale analysis (EMSA) for random Schr"odinger operators that relies on the Wegner estimate. The EMSA treats all energies of the finite volume operator in an energy interval at the same time, simultaneously establishing localization of all eigenfunctions with eigenvalues in the energy interval with high probability. It implies all the usual manifestations of localization (pure point spectrum with exponentially decaying eigenfunctions, dynamical localization). The new method removes the restrictive level spacing hypothesis used in the previous versions of the EMSA. The method is presented in the context of the Anderson model, allowing for single site probability distributions that are H"older continuous of order $alphain(0,1]$.

Review text

In their earlier works the authors used the eigensystem multiscale analysis (EMSA) for proving localization for random Schrödinger operators. The EMSA treats all energies of the finite volume operator in an energy interval at the same time, simultaneously establishing localization of all eigenfunctions with eigenvalues in the energy interval with high probability. The main novelty of the paper under review, to the EMSA for random Schrödinger operators, is the removal of the previously used restrictive condition, replacing it by an argument based on the Wegner estimate.
