The two-dimensional localisation and higher-dimensional delocalisation conjecture for the trimmed Anderson model

Let H(g)H(g) be the trimmed Anderson random Schrödinger operator in dimension dd, let HΓH_\Gamma be the associated periodic operator, and let II be an interval contained in the absolutely continuous spectrum of HΓH_\Gamma. Trimmed Anderson localisation–delocalisation conjecture. For strong disorder g1g\gg1, if d=2d=2, then H(g)H(g) exhibits localisation in the sense of; if d3d\geq3, then H(g)H(g) has absolutely continuous spectrum on II. The claim concerns the third possibility in the invariant setting, where c^c has an infinite connected component and II lies in a band of absolutely continuous spectrum of HΓH_\Gamma. The source presents this as a conjecture and gives no resolution.
