AbstractEigenfunctions of $1d$ disordered Hamiltonian with constant imaginary vector potential are investigated. Even within the domain of complex eigenvalues the wave functions are shown to be strongly localized. However, this localization is of a very unusual kind. The logarithm of the wave function at different coordinates $x$ fluctuates strongly (just like the position of Brownian particle fluctuates in time). After approaching its maximal value the logarithm decreases like the square root of the distance $overline{( ln|psi_{max}/psi| )^2} sim |x-x_0|$. The extension of the model to the quasi-$1d$ case is also considered.
