MBL as symmetry breaking
1979 The Mobility Edge Problem: Continuous Symmetry and a Conjecture - Franz Wegner
2021 Many-body delocalisation as symmetry breaking S. J. Garratt and J. T. Chalker
We identify the broken symmetry of the transfer matrix, introduce a local order parameter for the transition, and show that the associated
correlation functions are long-ranged only in the ergodic phase
