The random potential is usually assumed to be stationary and ergodic, which roughly means that it is macroscopically homogeneous. However, its spectral properties exhibit striking differences to the case of periodic potentials: there are dense pure point spectrum with localized eigenfunctions around the ground state energy. In the first half of this lecture, I will quickly review some of the results in this direction. In the second half, I will focus on a part of the proof where a probabilistic method called &#8220;large deviation principle&#8221; plays an important role. There we also encounter a seemingly unrelated polymer model which is of interest itself.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h6>16:30 &#8211; 18:30<\/h6>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<h5>Martin T.

The Harnack inequalities (elliptic and parabolic) of Moser are versatile and powerful tools: for example they imply immediately the Liouville property &#8212; ie that all bounded harmonic functions are constant.<br \/>\nThe proof techniques of de Giorgi, Moser and Nash are also very robust, and can be adapted to graphs and general metric spaces.

This direction has also been studied actively since 1990 and rather complete results have been proved for various models. In the first half of this lecture, I will mainly discuss the case of unbounded potentials, where the so-called<br \/>\nthe extreme value theory plays an important role. In the second half, I will explain more recent advances in the case of bounded potentials.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h6>16:30 &#8211; 18:30<\/h6>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<h5>Martin T.
