Abstract: | A numerical study is presented for the eigensolution statistics of largeN×N real and symmetric sparse random matrices as a function of the mean numberp of nonzero elements per row. The model shows classical percolation and quantum localization transitions atp
c
=1 andp
q
>1, respectively. In the rigid limitp=N we demonstrate that the averaged density of states follows the Wigner semicircle law and the corresponding nearest energy-level-spacing distribution functionP(S) obeys the Wigner surmise. In the very sparse matrix limitpN, withp>p
q
a singularity (E))1/¦E¦ is found as¦E¦ 0 and exponential tails develop in the high-¦E¦ regions, but theP(S) distribution remains consistent with level repulsion. The localization properties of the model are examined by studying both the eigenvector amplitude and the density fluctuations. The valuep
q
1.4 is roughly estimated, in agreement with previous studies of the Anderson transition in dilute Bethe lattices. |
