Cold atoms in the presence of disorder

Abstract

The review deals with the physics of cold atomic gases in the presence of disorder. The emphasis is on the theoretical developments, although several experiments are also briefly discussed. The review is intended to be pedagogical, explaining the basics and, for some of the topics, presenting rather detailed calculations.

Invited review, J. Phys. A. Comments from the community are welcome
