Upper critical dimension in the scaling theory of localization

Abstract

It is argued that the Thouless number g(L) is not the only parameter relevant in scale transformations, and that the second parameter connected with off-diagonal disorder should be introduced. A two-parameter scaling theory is suggested that explains a phenomenon of the upper critical dimension from the viewpoint of scaling ideas.
