%0 Journal Article %T Disorder and superconductivity : a new phase of bi-particle localized states %A Bhargavi Srinivasan %A Dima L. Shepelyansky %J Physics %D 2001 %I arXiv %R 10.1007/s10051-001-8700-7 %X We study the two-dimensional, disordered, attractive Hubbard model by the projector quantum Monte Carlo method and Bogoliubov - de Gennes mean-field theory. Our results for the ground state show the appearance of a new phase with charge localization in the metallic regime of the non-interacting model. Contrary to the common lore, we demonstrate that mean-field theory fails to predict this phase and is unable to describe the correct physical picture in this regime. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/0102055v1
