Renormalisation group study of Anderson localisation in two dimensions: effect of second-order terms

1981

The localisation of electrons moving in a random potential is studied in two dimensions using the real space renormalisation group method of Domany and Sarker. The effects of the cell size and of the second-order terms in the perturbation expansion are examined. While the method is not particularly sensitive to the cell size, its results depend crucially on the truncation of the perturbation series.
