Statistics of anomalously localized states at the center of band E=0 in the one-dimensional Anderson localization model
We consider the distribution function $P(|ψ|^{2})$ of the eigenfunction amplitude at the center-of-band (E=0) anomaly in the one-dimensional tight-binding chain with weak uncorrelated on-site disorder (the one-dimensional Anderson model). The special emphasis is on the probability of the anomalously localized states (ALS) with $|ψ|^{2}$ much larger than the inverse typical localization length $\ell_{0}$. Using the solution to the generating function $Φ_{an}(u,ϕ)$ found recently in our works we find the ALS probability distribution $P(|ψ|^{2})$ at $|ψ|^{2}\ell_{0} >> 1$. As an auxiliary preliminary step we found the asymptotic form of the generating function $Φ_{an}(u,ϕ)$ at $u >> 1$ which can be used to compute other statistical properties at the center-of-band anomaly. We show that at moderately large values of $|ψ|^{2}\ell_{0}$, the probability of ALS at E=0 is smaller than at energies away from the anomaly. However, at very large values of $|ψ|^{2}\ell_{0}$, the tendency is inverted: it is exponentially easier to create a very strongly localized state at E=0 than at energies away from the anomaly. We also found the leading term in the behavior of $P(|ψ|^{2})$ at small $|ψ|^{2}<< \ell_{0}^{-1}$ and show that it is consistent with the exponential localization corresponding to the Lyapunov exponent found earlier by Kappus and Wegner and Derrida and Gardner.
