Anderson Localization and Quantum Hall Effect: Numerical Observation of   Two Parameter Scaling
  A two dimensional disordered system of non-interacting fermions in a homogeneous magnetic field is investigated numerically. By introducing a new magnetic gauge, we explore the renormalization group (RG) flow of the longitudinal and Hall conductances with higher precision than previously studied, and find that the flow is consistent with the predictions of Pruisken and Khmelnitskii. The extracted critical exponents agree with the results obtained by using transfer matrix methods. The necessity of a second parameter is also reflected in the level curvature distribution. Near the critical point the distribution slightly differs from the prediciton of random matrix theory, in agreement with previous works. Close to the quantum Hall fixed points the distribution is lognormal since here states are strongly localized.
