Problem 7.2: localization-delocalization transition on the Bethe lattice
We now focus on the self energies, since the criterion for localization is given in terms of these quantities. In this Problem we will determine for which values of parameters localization is stable, estimating the critical value of disorder where the transition to a delocalised phase occurs.
- The “localized" solution. We set and . Show that the cavity equation for the self-energies is equivalent to the following pair of coupled equations:
Justify why the solution corresponding to localization, , is always a solution when ; moreover, in the localized phase when Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \eta } is finite but small one has Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \Gamma_a \sim O(\eta) } . How can one argue that this solution has to be discarded, i.e. that delocalisation occurs?
- Imaginary approximation and distributional equation. We consider the equations for and neglect the terms Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle R_b }
in the denominators, which couple the equations to those for the real parts of the self energies (“imaginary” approximation). Moreover, we assume to be in the localized phase, where Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \Gamma_a \sim \eta \ll 1 }

for simplicity. Show that under these assumptions the probability density for the imaginary part, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle P_\Gamma(\Gamma)}

- The stability analysis. We now wish to check the stability of our assumption to be in the localized phase, , which led to the identity above for Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \Phi(s) }
. Our assumption is that the typical value of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \Gamma_a }
is small, except for cases in which one of the descendants is such that Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \epsilon_b }
is very small, in which case Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \Gamma_a \sim 1/ \epsilon_b^2 }

- Show that if and Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle p(\epsilon)} is not gapped around zero, then Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle P_\Gamma(\Gamma) \sim \Gamma^{-3/2}} , i.e. the distribution has tails contributed by these events in which the local fields happen to be very small.
- Assume more generally that for large Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \Gamma } and Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \alpha \in [1, 3/2]} .

- The critical disorder. Consider now local fields Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \epsilon }
taken from a uniform distribution in . Compute Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle I(\beta) }

in the interval . Show that Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle I(\beta^*) }
increases as the disorder is made weaker and weaker, and thus the transition to delocalisation occurs at the critical value of disorder when Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle I(\beta^*)=k^{-1} }
. Show that this gives
