Strong eigenfunction correlations near the Anderson localization transition

arXiv:cond-mat/9612218 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.55.R16001

Abstract

We study overlap of two different eigenfunctions as compared with self-overlap in the framework of an infinite-dimensional version of the disordered tight-binding model. Despite a very sparse structure of the eigenstates in the vicinity of Anderson transition their mutual overlap is still found to be of the same order as self-overlap as long as energy separation is smaller than a critical value. The latter fact explains robustness of the Wigner-Dyson level statistics everywhere in the phase of extended states. The same picture is expected to hold for usual d-dimensional conductors, ensuring the form of the level repulsion at critical point.
