Anderson localization on the Cayley tree : multifractal statistics of the transmission at criticality and off criticality
In contrast to finite dimensions where disordered systems display
multifractal statistics only at criticality, the tree geometry induces
multifractal statistics for disordered systems also off criticality. For the
Anderson tight-binding localization model defined on a tree of branching ratio
K=2 with generations, we consider the Miller-Derrida scattering geometry
[J. Stat. Phys. 75, 357 (1994)], where an incoming wire is attached to the root
of the tree, and where outcoming wires are attached to the leaves of
the tree. In terms of the transmission amplitudes , the total
Landauer transmission is , so that each channel
is characterized by the weight . We numerically measure the
typical multifractal singularity spectrum of these weights as a
function of the disorder strength and we obtain the following conclusions
for its left-termination point . In the delocalized phase ,
is strictly positive and is associated with a
moment index . At criticality, it vanishes and is
associated with the moment index . In the localized phase ,
is associated with some moment index . We discuss the
similarities with the exact results concerning the multifractal properties of
the Directed Polymer on the Cayley tree.Comment: v2=final version (16 pages
