A Strong Effect of Disorder on Mott Transition: Hubbard-Lloyd Model

J. Spalek, W. Wojcik

We include atomic disorder in correlated narrow-band systems by assuming that the atomic level position fluctuates according to the Lorentzian distribution. We use the  Lloyd exact form of the averaged single-particle Green function when the electronic correlations are absent or treated in the saddle-point slave-boson (or Gutzwiller) approximation. The weak disorder reduces drastically the threshold for the Mott--Hubbard localization.
