Abstract
For temperature zero the effects of disorder for interacting bosons are considered. The disorder induced superfluid-insulator transition in thed-dimensional disordered Bogoliubov model is discussed. Results for a short-range and a long-range random potential are given. For short-range disorder we argue that ford<4 arbitrarily small disorder localizes the Bose condensate for vanishing interaction potential. Ford>4 a certain strength of the disorder potential is necessary in order to localize the condensate. For the three-dimensional Bogoliubov model our results are in agreement with a recent calculation. We compare our theoretical predictions with numerical experiments for a disordered boson Hubbard model.
