Probability distribution of the conductance at the mobility edge
Distribution of the conductance P(g) at the critical point of the
metal-insulator transition is presented for three and four dimensional
orthogonal systems. The form of the distribution is discussed. Dimension
dependence of P(g) is proven. The limiting cases and are
discussed in detail and relation in the limit is proven.Comment: 4 pages, 3 .eps figure
Comment on the paper I. M. Suslov: Finite Size Scaling from the Self Consistent Theory of Localization
In the recent paper [I.M.Suslov, JETP {\bf 114} (2012) 107] a new scaling
theory of electron localization was proposed. We show that numerical data for
the quasi-one dimensional Anderson model do not support predictions of this
theory.Comment: Comment on the paper arXiv 1104.043
Symmetry, dimension and the distribution of the conductance at the mobility edge
The probability distribution of the conductance at the mobility edge,
, in different universality classes and dimensions is investigated
numerically for a variety of random systems. It is shown that is
universal for systems of given symmetry, dimensionality, and boundary
conditions. An analytical form of for small values of is discussed

Electronic transport in strongly anisotropic disordered systems: model for the random matrix theory with non-integer beta
We study numerically an electronic transport in strongly anisotropic weakly
disorderd two-dimensional systems. We find that the conductance distribution is
gaussian but the conductance fluctuations increase when anisotropy becomes
stronger. We interpret this result by random matrix theory with non-integer
symmetry parameter beta, in accordance with recent theoretical work of
K.A.Muttalib and J.R.Klauder [Phys.Rev.Lett. 82 (1999) 4272]. Analysis of the
statistics of transport paramateres supports this hypothesis.Comment: 8 pages, 7 *.eps figure
Character of eigenstates of the 3D disordered Anderson Hamiltonian
We study numerically the character of electron eigenstates of the three
dimensional disordered Anderson model. Analysis of the statistics of inverse
participation ratio as well as numerical evaluation of the electron-hole
correlation function confirm that there are no localized states below the
mobility edge, as well as no metallic state in the tail of the conductive band.
We discuss also finite size effects observed in the analysis of all the
discussed quantities.Comment: 7 pages, 9 figures, resubmitted to Physical Review
Localization Transition in Multilayered Disordered Systems
The Anderson delocalization-localization transition is studied in
multilayered systems with randomly placed interlayer bonds of density and
strength . In the absence of diagonal disorder (W=0), following an
appropriate perturbation expansion, we estimate the mean free paths in the main
directions and verify by scaling of the conductance that the states remain
extended for any finite , despite the interlayer disorder. In the presence
of additional diagonal disorder () we obtain an Anderson transition with
critical disorder and localization length exponent independently of
the direction. The critical conductance distribution varies,
however, for the parallel and the perpendicular directions. The results are
discussed in connection to disordered anisotropic materials.Comment: 10 pages, Revtex file, 8 postscript files, minor change
Determination of Effective Permittivity and Permeability of Metamaterials from Reflection and Transmission Coefficients
We analyze the reflection and transmission coefficients calculated from
transfer matrix simulations on finite lenghts of electromagnetic metamaterials,
to determine the effective permittivity and permeability. We perform this
analysis on structures composed of periodic arrangements of wires, split ring
resonators (SRRs) and both wires and SRRs. We find the recovered
frequency-dependent permittivity and permeability are entirely consistent with
analytic expressions predicted by effective medium arguments. Of particular
relevance are that a wire medium exhibits a frequency region in which the real
part of permittivity is negative, and SRRs produce a frequency region in which
the real part of permeability is negative. In the combination structure, at
frequencies where both the recovered real part of permittivity and permeability
are simultaneously negative, the real part of the index-of-refraction is found
also to be unambigously negative.Comment: *.pdf file, 5 figure
Universality of the critical conductance distribution in various dimensions
We study numerically the metal - insulator transition in the Anderson model
on various lattices with dimension (bifractals and Euclidian
lattices). The critical exponent and the critical conductance
distribution are calculated. We confirm that depends only on the {\it
spectral} dimension. The other parameters - critical disorder, critical
conductance distribution and conductance cummulants - depend also on lattice
topology. Thus only qualitative comparison with theoretical formulae for
dimension dependence of the cummulants is possible
Scaling of the conductance distribution near the Anderson transition
The single parameter scaling hypothesis is the foundation of our
understanding of the Anderson transition. However, the conductance of a
disordered system is a fluctuating quantity which does not obey a one parameter
scaling law. It is essential to investigate the scaling of the full conductance
distribution to establish the scaling hypothesis. We present a clear cut
numerical demonstration that the conductance distribution indeed obeys one
parameter scaling near the Anderson transition
Numerical verification of universality for the Anderson transition
We analyze the scaling behavior of the higher Lyapunov exponents at the
Anderson transition. We estimate the critical exponent and verify its
universality and that of the critical conductance distribution for box,
Gaussian and Lorentzian distributions of the random potential
