The average TDOS shows a critical behavior at high energies, with a crossover to a soft Coulomb gap $\\Delta$ at low energies. We demonstrate that the single-particle excitations experience a localization transition (which belongs to the noninteracting universality class) at an energy $E=\\pm E_c$. The mobility edge $E_c$ scales with the distance $\\mu_c-\\mu$ from the interacting critical point according to $E_c\\propto (\\mu_c-\\mu)^{\\nu z}$, where $\\nu$ and $z$ are the localization-length and the dynamical critical exponents. Local TDOS shows strong fluctuations and long-range correlations which reflect the multifractality associated with interacting and noninteracting fixed points as well the localization of low-energy excitations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2014-01-22T08:36:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "72.15.Rn", "71.30.+h", "73.43.Nq" ], "keywords": [ "coulomb interaction", "anderson transitions", "localized phase", "anderson localization transition", "single-particle excitations experience" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2014, "month": "Jan", "volume": 89, "number": 3, "pages": "035430" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1243965, "adsabs": "2014PhRvB..89c5430B" } } }
