Goal: the goal of this set of problems is to derive an estimate for the transition point for the Anderson model on the Bethe lattice.
Techniques: cavity method, stability analysis.

A criterion for localization

• Green functions and self-energies. Given a lattice $\mathrm{\Lambda }$ with sites $a$, we call $|a⟩$ the wave function completely localised in site $a$. The Anderson model has Hamiltonian $H=W\sum _a{ϵ}_a|a⟩⟨a|+\sum _{<a,b>}{V}_{ab}(|a⟩⟨b|+|b⟩⟨a|)=H_0+V.$

  We introduce the local green functions $G_{ab}(z)$: these are functions of a complex variable belonging to the upper half of the complex plane, and are defined by

  $G_{ab}=⟨a|\frac{1}{z-H}|b⟩$
