Dynamical self-averaging for a lattice Schrödinger equation with weak random potential

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study the kinetic, weak coupling limit of the dynamics governed by a discrete random Schrödinger operator on Z3\mathbb{Z}^3. For sequences of ℓ2(Z3)\ell^2\left(\mathbb{Z}^3\right)-bounded initial states and convergent initial Wigner transform, we prove that the scaled Wigner transform converges to the solution of a linear Boltzmann equation in Lr(P)L^r\left(\mathbb{P}\right)for all r>0r>0, thus considerably strengthening a previous result by Chen. The key ingredients for the proof are a finer classification of graphs in the expansion of the perturbed dynamics as well as a novel resolvent estimate for the unperturbed Schrödinger operator. Under some additional assumption on the sequence of initial states we even prove almost sure convergence.
