Description
In this set of three seminars I will give a didactic introduction to the topic of localization in quantum disordered systems. In the third and last seminar I will talk about some recent results about the investigation of the many-body localization-delocalization transition. Namely, I will discuss the transport properties in the thermalizing phase in a disordered spin chain, and how they change on approaching the localization transition. Moreover, I will show how entanglement can be used to spot the subtle correlations in the thermalizing phase.
