We study a quantum particle hopping on an infinite Cayley tree with nearest-neighbor hopping amplitudes drawn from a distribution singular as $|t|^{-a}$ near weak links and no on-site disorder. Because the graph is bipartite, the model has chiral symmetry, which strongly affects the statistics of eigenstates at the center of the spectrum. Using population dynamics to solve the cavity equations for the propagator, we analyze the distribution of the local density of states and show that it develops broad power-law tails. These tails imply an unusual form of wave-function statistics, which we call semi-fractality: the eigenstates occupy an extensive fraction of the system, but their higher moments behave as in a multifractal state. We find that the symmetry properties of the local-density-of-states distribution are not fixed only by the symmetry class, but vary continuously with the exponent controlling the power-law hopping distribution. As this exponent is changed, the system crosses from a semi-fractal regime to a localized one. At the transition, the wave functions realize an extreme intermediate form that we call semi-localized, simultaneously extended in their support but localized according to higher moments.
We study local eigenvalue statistics and dynamical (de)-localization properties for long-range Anderson models, including the fractional Anderson model. These systems are random Anderson-type perturbations of operators with long-range (non random) hopping terms of the form $|T(n,m)| \sim \|n-m\|^{-(d+2\beta)}$ for $\be...

We study mass-conserving Markov jump processes on a square lattice, where masses hop with a preferred rotational sense, thus breaking both time-reversal and mirror symmetries. We consider closed systems with both periodic and open (reflecting) boundaries, the latter supporting a steady-state edge current. We show that...

Fractal geometries provide a distinctive platform for controlling quantum interference, topology, and localization. We investigate the Su--Schrieffer--Heeger (SSH) model constructed on the Koch curve, where a triangular geometry enables additional same-sublattice hoppings that break chiral symmetry and modify the conve...
We study a one-dimensional Hatano-Nelson ring whose nonreciprocal hopping is quasiperiodically modulated through zero. A gauge transformation maps every eigenstate onto a single spatial envelope, whose logarithm becomes a deterministic, logarithmically correlated field once the hopping vanishes along the quasiperiodic...
We study the localization of a quantum particle in a one-dimensional disordered system with long-range hopping amplitudes $t(r)\propto r^{-a}$. In contrast to the standard one-dimensional Anderson model ($a\to\infty$), in which all states are localized and the localization length is minimal at the band edge, the long-r...

We investigate the interplay between geometric dilution and non-Hermitian disorder in the two-dimensional quantum site-percolation model. Non-Hermiticity is introduced through random imaginary on-site potentials, representing spatially uncorrelated gain and loss, while the hopping amplitudes remain reciprocal. By combi...
