These Departmental Seminars are for everyone in Maths. We encourage anyone interested in the subject in general, or in the particular subject of the seminar, to come along. It's a great opportunity to meet people in the Maths Department and join in with our community.

Fractional random Schrödinger operators, integrated density of states and localisation

In this talk we will review some recent results on the fractional Anderson model, a random Schrödinger operator driven by a fractional laplacian. The interest on the latter lies in their association to stable Levy processes, random walks with long jumps and anomalous diffusion.

We discuss in this talk the interplay between the non-locality of the fractional laplacian and the localisation properties of the random potential in the fractional Anderson model, in both the continuous and discrete settings. In the discrete setting we study the integrated density of states and show a fractional version of Lifshitz tails. This coincides with results obtained in the continuous setting by the probability community. This is based on joint work with M. Gebert (LMU Munich).
