   Abstract:
   We study the problem of predicting highly localized low-lying eigenfunctions (- Δ + V) ϕ= λϕ in bounded domains Ω ⊂ R^d for rapidly varying potentials V. Filoche and Mayboroda introduced the function 1/u, where (- Δ + V) u= 1 , as a suitable regularization of V from whose minima one can predict the location of eigenfunctions with high accuracy. We proposed a fast method that produces a landscapes that is exceedingly similar, can be used for the same purposes and can be computed very efficiently: the computation time on an n× n grid, for example, is merely O(n²log n) , the cost of two FFTs.
