8 The network model of Chalker and Coddington. Each node represents a saddle point and each link an equipotential line of the random potential (Chalker and Coddington; 1988) z 1 z 2 z 3 z 4 Z Z 1 3 = M Z Z 4 2 M = e iϕ 0 1 e 0 iϕ 2 cosh θ sinh θ i sinh θ e cosh θ 0 ϕ 3 e 0 iϕ 4 Crit. value argument

10 Total transfer matrix T of the system is a result of N iterations. Real parts of the eigenvalues are produced by diagonalization of the product M system width Lyapunov exponents λ 1 >λ 2 > >λ M/2 >0 Localization length for the system of width M ξ M is related to the smallest positive Lyapunov exponent: ξ M ~ 1/λ M/ /2 2 1 ( ) M M N N N N N N e e e e e e T T λ λ λ λ λ λ = Loc. Length explanation
11 ξ M /M ξ Μ /Μ Renormalized localization length as function of energy and system width 0.9 ξ M 0.8 = const M εμ 1/ν ε One-parameter scaling fits data for different M on one curve ξ M ( ε ) M M=16 M=32 M=64 M=128 M = f ξ ( ε )
12 The thermodynamic localization length is then defined as function of energy and diverges as energy approaches zero ν = 2.5 ± 0.5 ξ ( ε ) ~ ε ν Main result in agreement with experiment and other numerical simulations Is that it?
13 Generalization: each link carries two channels. Mixing on the links is unitary 2x2 matrix U i e e cos φ α iγ iδ = e iγ iα sin φ e e sin φ cos φ Lee and Chalker, PRL 72, 1510 (1994) Main result two different critical energies even for the spin degenerate case

17 Compact form of the Hamiltonian Ĥ = 1 h h c c c 2 T c The 4N states are arranged as (p,p,h,h ) Four additional symmetry classes: combination of time-reversal and spin-rotational symmetries Class C TR is broken but SROT is preserved corresponds to SU(2) symmetry on the link in CC model (PRL (1999)) with ν 1.12, µ 1.45 Renormalized localization length ξ ( ε, ) M = 1 f εm ν, M M 1 µ Unidir.

19 Class D TR and SROT are broken Can be realized in superconductors with a p-wave spin-triplet pairing, e.g. Sr 2 RuO 4 (Strontium Ruthenate) The A state (mixing of two different representations) total angular momentum J z =1 broken time-reversal symmetry Triplet broken spin-rotational symmetry

21 Class D TR and SROT are broken corresponds to O(1) symmetry on the link one-channel CC model with phases on the links (the diagonal matrix element ) ϕ = l 0 with probability W π with probability 1-W λ =!!! The result: 0 M M=2 exercise coshθ sinhθ e 1 sinh cosh 0 A 1 A θ θ θ A = After many iterations... = e [( + A+ AB+ ABC+...) θ ] 1 ABC...
22 coshθ sinhθ = e Aθ 1 sinhθ coshθ 0 A 1 A... = e After many iterations [ ( + A+ AB+ ABC+...) θ] 1 ABC... After many iterations there is a constant probability α for ABC =+1, and correspondingly 1- α for the value -1. Then: αw+(1- α)(1-w)= α α=1/2 except for W=0,1 Both eigenvectors have EQUAL probability, and their contributions therefore cancel each other leading to λ =0

32 First approximation infinite barrier with probability p If p=1 then 2d system is broken into M 1d chains All states are extended independent on energy Lyapunov exponent λ=0 for any system size as in D-class superconductor
33 Naive argument a fraction p of nodes is missing, therefore a particle should travel a larger distance (times 1/(1-p)) to experience the same number of scattering events, then the effective system width is M(1-p) -1 and the scaling is ξ M M ( 1 p) 1 = M f ξ( ε) But missing node does not allow particle to propagate in the transverse direction. Usually ξ M ~M, we, therefore, can expect power ν>1
34 ξ M /M M=16 M=32 M= p Renormalized localization length at critical energy ε=0 as function of the fraction of missing nodes p for different system widths. Solid line is the best fit 1.24(1-p) Dashed line is the fit with "naive" exponent ν=1
35 (1-p) 1.3 ξ Μ /M M=16 p=0.5 M=32 p=0.5 M=64 p=0.5 M=16 p=0 M=32 p=0 M=64 p=0 M=16 ε=0.3 M=32 ε=0.3 M=64 ε=0.3 M=16 ε=0.5 M=32 ε=0.5 M=64 ε=0.5 M=16 ε=0 M=32 ε=0 M=64 ε= Mε 2.5 Data collapse for all energies ε, system widths M and all fractions p 1 of missing nodes
36 Ferdinand Evers The effect of directed percolation can be responsible for the appearance of the value ν 1.3. By making a horizontal direction preferential, we have introduced an anisotropy into the system. Our result practically coincides with the value of critical exponent for the divergent temporal correlation length in 2d critical nonequilibrium systems, described by directed percolation models H. Hinrichsen, Adv. Phys. 49, 815 (2000) G. Odor, Rev. Mod. Phys. 76, 663 (2004) S. Luebeck, Int. J. Mod. Phys. B 18, 3977 (2004) It probably should not come as a surprise if we recollect that each link in the network model can be associated with a unit of time C. M. Ho and J. T. Chalker, Phys. Rev. B 54, 8708 (1996).
