Localization and delocalization in dirty superconducting wires

We present Fokker-Planck equations that describe transport of heat and spin in dirty unconventional superconducting quantum wires. Four symmetry classes are distinguished, depending on the presence or absence of time-reversal and spin-rotation invariance. In the absence of spin-rotation symmetry, heat transport is anomalous in that the mean conductance decays like 1/sqrt[L] instead of exponentially fast for large enough length L of the wire. The Fokker-Planck equations in the presence of time-reversal symmetry are solved exactly and the mean conductance for quasiparticle transport is calculated for the crossover from the diffusive to the localized regime.

Density of states in coupled chains with off-diagonal disorder

We compute the density of states rho(varepsilon) in N coupled chains with random hopping. At zero energy, rho(varepsilon) shows a singularity that strongly depends on the parity of N. For odd N, rho(varepsilon) approximately 1/|varepsilonln (3)varepsilon|, with and without time-reversal symmetry. For even N, rho(varepsilon) approximately |lnvarepsilon| in the presence of time-reversal symmetry, while there is a pseudogap, rho(varepsilon) approximately |varepsilonlnvarepsilon|, in the absence of time-reversal symmetry.
