Eigenvectors of the critical 1-dimensional random Schroedinger operator
  The purpose of this paper is to understand in more detail the shape of the eigenvectors of the random Schroedinger operator H = Delta+V. Here Delta is the discrete Laplacian and V is a random potential. It is well known that under certain assumptions on V the spectrum of this operator is pure point and its eigenvectors are exponentially localized; a phenomenon known as Anderson Localization. We restrict the operator to Z_n and consider the critical model H_n. We show that the shape of a uniformly chosen eigenvector of H_n converges in law to exp (-|t|/4 + Z_t/sqrt(2)), where Z is two-sided Brownian motion.
