Anderson localization for Schrödinger operators with monotone potentials over circle homeomorphisms

Abstract

In this paper, we prove pure point spectrum for a large class of Schrödinger operators over circle maps with conditions on the rotation number going beyond the Diophantine. More specifically, we develop the scheme to obtain pure point spectrum for Schrödinger operators with monotone bi-Lipschitz potentials over orientation-preserving circle homeomorphisms with Diophantine or weakly Liouville rotation number. The localization is uniform when the coupling constant is large enough.
