Delocalization due to correlations in two-dimensional disordered systems

Abstract
We study the spectral statistics of interacting spinless fermions in a two-dimensional disordered lattice. Within a full quantum treatment for small few-particle-systems, we compute the low-energy many-body states numerically. While at weak disorder the interactions reduce spectral correlations and lead to localization, for the case of strong disorder we find that a moderate Coulomb interaction has a delocalizing effect. In addition, we observe a non-universal structure in the level-spacing distribution which we attribute to a mechanism reinforcing spectral correlations taking place in small systems at strong disorder.
