    Localization for Schrodinger operators with random vector potentials

    Full text link
    We prove Anderson localization at the internal band-edges for periodic magnetic Schr{\"o}dinger operators perturbed by random vector potentials of Anderson-type. This is achieved by combining new results on the Lifshitz tails behavior of the integrated density of states for random magnetic Schr{\"o}dinger operators, thereby providing the initial length-scale estimate, and a Wegner estimate, for such models

    Calculation of transport coefficient profiles in modulation experiments as an inverse problem

    Full text link
    The calculation of transport profiles from experimental measurements belongs in the category of inverse problems which are known to come with issues of ill-conditioning or singularity. A reformulation of the calculation, the matricial approach, is proposed for periodically modulated experiments, within the context of the standard advection-diffusion model where these issues are related to the vanishing of the determinant of a 2x2 matrix. This sheds light on the accuracy of calculations with transport codes, and provides a path for a more precise assessment of the profiles and of the related uncertainty.Comment: V2: two typos correcte
