Mott-Hubbard-Anderson Metal-Insulator Transition in the Falicov-Kimball Model with Local Disorder

Abstract
The statistical dynamical mean field theory is used to study the metal-insulator transition in the two-dimensional Falicov-Kimball model with local disorder. Within the theory, the local density of states and its distributions are calculated. As a measure of the metal-insulator transition driven by correlation and disorder, the most probable value of the local density of states is determined. The most probable value of the local density of states is found to exhibit a discontinuity when the system crosses from extended states to localization. A phase diagram is also presented.
