Random Apollonian networks with tailored clustering coefficient.

We introduce a family of complex networks that interpolates between the Apollonian network and its binary version, recently introduced in E. M. K.

Binary Apollonian networks.

There is a well-known relationship between the binary Pascal's triangle and the Sierpinski triangle, in which the latter is obtained from the former by successive modulo 2 additions starting from a corner. Inspired by that, we define a binary Apollonian network and obtain two structures featuring a kind of dendritic growth. They are found to inherit the small-world and scale-free properties from the original network but display no clustering.

Localization properties of a two-channel 3D Anderson model.

We study two coupled 3D lattices, one of them featuring uncorrelated on-site disorder and the other one being fully ordered, and analyze how the interlattice hopping affects the localization-delocalization transition of the former and how the latter responds to it. We find that moderate hopping pushes down the critical disorder strength for the disordered channel throughout the entire spectrum compared to the usual phase diagram for the 3D Anderson model. In that case, the ordered channel begins to feature an effective disorder also leading to the emergence of mobility edges but with higher associated critical disorder values.
