O(N) algorithms for disordered systems
Vincent E. Sacksteder ;
Date 1 Dec 2003
Subject Disordered Systems and Neural Networks | cond-mat.dis-nn
AbstractThe past thirteen years have seen the development of many algorithms for approximating matrix functions in O(N) time, where N is the basis size. These O(N) algorithms rely on assumptions about the spatial locality of the matrix function; therefore their validity depends very much on the argument of the matrix function. In this article I carefully examine the validity of certain O(N) algorithms when applied to hamiltonians of disordered systems. I focus on the prototypical disordered system, the Anderson model. I find that O(N) algorithms for the density matrix function can be used well below the Anderson transition (i.e. in the metallic phase;) they fail only when the coherence length becomes large. This paper also includes some experimental results about the Anderson model’s behavior across a range of disorders.
