Macroscopic conductivity of free fermions in disordered media

We conclude our analysis of the linear response of charge transport in lattice systems of free fermions subjected to a random potential by deriving general mathematical properties of its conductivity at the macroscopic scale. The present paper belongs to a succession of studies on Ohm and Joule's laws from a thermodynamic viewpoint. We show, in particular, the existence and finiteness of the conductivity measure $\mu _{\mathbf{\Sigma }}$ for macroscopic scales. Then we prove that, similar to the conductivity measure associated to Drude's model, $\mu _{\mathbf{\Sigma }}$ converges in the weak$^{\ast } $-topology to the trivial measure in the case of perfect insulators (strong disorder, compl…
