Localization for Almost-Periodic Operators with Power-law Long-range Hopping: A Nash-Moser Iteration Type Reducibility Approach

In this paper we develop a Nash-Moser iteration type reducibility approach to prove the (inverse) localization for some d-dimensional discrete almost-periodic operators with power-law long-range hopping. We also provide a quantitative lower bound on the regularity of the hopping. As an application, some results of Sarnak (Comm Math Phys 84(3):377–401, 1982), Pöschel (Comm Math Phys 88(4):447–463, 1983), Craig (Comm Math Phys 88(1):113–131, 1983) and Bellissard et al. (Comm Math Phys 88(4):465–477, 1983) are generalized to the power-law hopping case.
