Statistics of eigenvectors in the deformed Gaussian unitary ensemble of random matrices

Abstract: We study eigenvectors in the deformed Gaussian unitary ensemble of random matrices $H=W\tilde{H}W$, where $\tilde{H}$ is a random matrix from Gaussian unitary ensemble and $W$ is a deterministic diagonal matrix with positive entries. Using the supersymmetry approach we calculate analytically the moments and the distribution function of the eigenvectors components for a generic matrix $W$. We show that specific choices of $W$ can modify significantly the nature of the eigenvectors changing them from extended to critical to localized. Our analytical results are supported by numerical simulations.
