- Abstract summary: Anderson localization is the ubiquitous phenomenon of inhibition of transport of classical and quantum waves in a disordered medium.
The exact shape of the stationary localized distribution differs from a purely exponential profile and has been computed almost fifty years ago by Gogolin.
Using the atomic quantum kicked rotor, a paradigmatic quantum simulator of Anderson localization physics, we study this distribution.

- Abstract: Anderson localization is the ubiquitous phenomenon of inhibition of transport
of classical and quantum waves in a disordered medium. In dimension one, it is
well known that all states are localized, implying that the distribution of an
initially narrow wave-packet released in a disordered potential will, at long
time, decay exponentially on the scale of the localization length. However, the
exact shape of the stationary localized distribution differs from a purely
exponential profile and has been computed almost fifty years ago by Gogolin.
Using the atomic quantum kicked rotor, a paradigmatic quantum simulator of
Anderson localization physics, we study this asymptotic distribution by two
complementary approaches. First, we discuss the connection of the statistical
properties of the system's localized eigenfunctions and their exponential decay
with the localization length of the Gogolin distribution. Next, we make use of
our experimental platform, realizing an ideal Floquet disordered system, to
measure the long-time probability distribution and highlight the very good
agreement with the analytical prediction compared to the purely exponential one
over 3 orders of magnitude.

We find that some show signatures for a transition to localization above a critical disorder strength, while others show a smooth crossover to a modified diffusion regime.
Our work emphasizes that the transition toward localization can be investigated by closely analyzing the system's diffusion.

The main insight of Bayesian Renormalization is that the Fisher metric defines a correlation length that plays the role of an emergent RG scale.
We provide insight into how the Bayesian Renormalization scheme relates to existing methods for data compression and data generation.

We study its scaling behavior across delocalozation transitions and identify critical points from scaling collapses of numerical data.
We observe a distinctively different scaling behavior in the case of interacting fermions with random disorder consistent with a Kosterlitz-Thouless transition.
