Dynamical Anderson transition in one-dimensional periodically kicked   incommensurate lattices
  We study the dynamical localization transition in a one-dimensional periodically kicked incommensurate lattice, which is created by perturbing a primary optical lattice periodically with a pulsed weaker incommensurate lattice. The diffusion of wave packets in the pulsed optical lattice exhibits either extended or localized behaviors, which can be well characterized by the mean square displacement and the spatial correlation function. We show that the dynamical localization transition is relevant to both the strength of incommensurate potential and the kicked period, and the transition point can be revealed by the information entropy of eigenfunctions of the Floquet propagator.
