Anderson transition in three-dimensional disordered systems with symplectic symmetry

The Anderson transition in a 3D system with symplectic symmetry is investigated numerically. From a one-parameter scaling analysis the critical exponent $ν$ of the localization length is extracted and estimated to be $ν= 1.3 \pm 0.2$. The level statistics at the critical point are also analyzed and shown to be scale independent. The form of the energy level spacing distribution $P(s)$ at the critical point is found to be different from that for the orthogonal ensemble suggesting that the breaking of spin rotation symmetry is relevant at the critical point.

Scaling Behavior of Level Statistics in Quantum Hall Regime

The scaling property of level statistics in the quantum Hall regime, i.e. 2D disordered electron systems subject to strong magnetic fields, is analyzed numerically in the light of the random matrix theory. The energy dependences of the effective level repulsion parameter, the two level correlation, the GUE-GOE crossover parameter, and the rigidity (or $Δ_3$-statistics) of the level distributions are investigated for different system sizes by unfolding the original data and by dividing the unfolded spectrum into small regions. It is shown that the critical exponent of the localization length as a function of energy can be determined through the energy dependence of the level statistics. The analyses are carried out not only for the lowest Landau band (LB) but also for the second lowest LB. Furthermore the effect of finite range of disordered potential is studied. The short-ranged potential case in the second lowest LB is found to be pathological as in other studies of critical behavior, and it is confirmed that this pathological behavior is improved in the case of disordered potential with finite ranges.
