Abstract: Consider the localization problem for the Anderson model of a quantum particle moving in a random potential. We develop a renormalization-group framework based on a sequence of Feshbach-Schur maps. Each map produces an effective Hamiltonian on a lower-dimensional space by localizing modes in space and in energy. Randomness in ever-larger neighborhoods produces nontrivial eigenvalue movement and separates eigenvalues, making the next step of the RG possible. We discuss a particularly challenging case where the disorder has a discrete distribution.
