Proof — Fröhlich–Spencer: Anderson localization for tight-binding models

Statement

For a class of Anderson tight-binding Hamiltonians on ℤ^d with d ≥ 3 and sufficiently small disorder (and standard assumptions on the single-site distribution), the spectrum is pure point and eigenfunctions are exponentially localized (with probability one in the disorder). Landmark rigorous proof of Anderson localization in the lattice setting. Proved in ZFC.
