The Model α=.1 α=.5 Generation Method: 1. Find spectral density 2. Generate {V(k)} from Gaussian with variance S(k) 3. Apply conditions V(k) = V*(-k) 4. Take inverse FT to get {Єi} α=1 Greg M. Petersen

Participation Ratio - Wavefunctions are characterized by fractal exponents. Greg M. Petersen
Fractal Exponent D of IPR E=0.1 E=2.5 Character of eigenstates changes for alpha less than 1. E=1.3 Greg M. Petersen
Exam Cain et al. EPL (2011) – no transition Petersen, Sandler (2012) - no transition Moura and Lyra, PRL (1998) - transition Greg M. Petersen
Conclusions - Single parameter scaling is verified - All states localize - Found more and less localized regions - Determined dependence of W/t on crossing energy - Calculated the fractal dimension D by IPR - D is conditional dependent on alpha Thank you for your attention! Greg M. Petersen
