• Abstract: Recent advances in transport properties measurements of disordered materials and lattice simulations, using superconducting qubits, have rekindled interest in Anderson localization, motivating our study of highly disordered quantum lattices. Initially, our statistical analysis of localized eigenstates reveals a distinct transition between weak and strong disorder regimes, suggesting a random distribution of dimers in highly disordered systems. Subsequently, the random dimer model predicts an oscillating diffusivity that decays as $t^{-1/2}$, is inversely proportional to the disorder strength, and maintains a constant frequency with an initial phase shift of $\pi/4$. The first peak exhibits a universal scaling of $\sigma^{-1}$ both in peak time and amplitude. Finally, we find that stochastic noise suppresses these oscillations and induces hopping between localized eigenstates, resulting in constant diffusion over long times. Our predictions challenge the conventional understanding of incoherent hopping under strong disorder. This offers new insights to optimize disordered systems for optoelectrical and quantum information technologies.

  We study a model in which the system Hamiltonian and its couplings to the noise are random matrices whose entries decay as power laws of distance. The steady state is always featureless, but the rate at which it is approached exhibits three phases depending on $alpha_H$ and $alpha_L$. Within perturbation theory, the phase boundaries in the $(alpha_H, alpha_L)$ plane differ for weak and strong dissipation, suggesting phase transitions as a function of noise strength.

  We show that introduction of harmonic and spin-dependent linear potentials sufficiently validates fTWA for longer times. In particular, we focus on a finite two-dimensional system and show that at intermediate linear potential strength, the addition of a harmonic potential and spin dependence of the tilt, results in subdiffusive dynamics.

  Generically, non-integrable quantum systems are expected to thermalize as they comply with the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis. In the presence of strong disorder, the dynamics can possibly slow down to a degree that systems fail to thermalize on experimentally accessible timescales. We study an ensemble of Heisenberg spins with a tunable distribution of random coupling strengths realized by a Rydberg quantum simulator.
