Abstract
We study the localization volumes (participation ratio) of electronic wave functions in the -Anderson model with diagonal disorder. Using a renormalization procedure, we show that at the band edges, i.e., for energies , is inversely proportional to the variance of the site potentials. Using scaling arguments, we show that in the neighborhood of , scales as with the scaling function . Numerical simulations confirm this scaling ansatz.
