Localization for non-stationary Anderson models in three dimensions

Abstract

We prove localization (near the bottom of the spectrum) for certain non-stationary variants of the Anderson model in three dimensions. More specifically, we prove a Wegner estimate, which implies localization by existing work. Two key inputs are a deterministic quantitative unique continuation theorem by Li and Zhang [Duke Math. J. 171(2): 327-415, 2022] and some combinatorial decompositions/bounds for non-stationary random potentials proved by the author [Commun. Math. Phys. 407:64, 2026].
