Abstract:
I will review some recent works on the application of RG ideas to localization problems in cases in which they have not been applied before. In particular, I will show what happens to the flow in the Anderson model when the number of dimensions tend to infinity, and how to reconstruct the flow from numerical data using the finite-size scaling theory; I will also show how different models of MBL can present different RG flows which reflect different mechanisms for the localization-ETH transition.
