Lyapunov exponents of Green's functions for random potentials tending to zero

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We consider quenched and annealed Lyapunov exponents for the Green's function of −Δ+γV-Δ+γV, where the potentials V(x),x∈ZdV(x), x\in\Z^d, are i.i.d. nonnegative random variables and γ>0γ>0 is a scalar. We present a probabilistic proof that both Lyapunov exponents scale like cγc\sqrtγ as γγ tends to 0. Here the constant cc is the same for the quenched as for the annealed exponent and is computed explicitly. This improves results obtained previously by Wei-Min Wang. We also consider other ways to send the potential to zero than multiplying it by a small number.
