Abstract
The influence of the disorder-induced Anderson localization and electron-electron interaction on the superconductivity in two-dimensional systems is explored. We determine the superconducting transition temperature Tc, the temperature dependence of the resistivity, the phase diagram, and the magnetoresistance. The analysis is based on the renormalization group (RG) for a nonlinear sigma model. The derived RG equations are valid to the lowest order in disorder but for an arbitrary electron-electron interaction strength in a particle-hole and the Cooper channels. Systems with preserved and broken spin-rotational symmetry are considered, with both short-range and long-range (Coulomb) interactions. In the case of short-range interaction, we identify parameter regions where the superconductivity is enhanced by localization effects. Our RG analysis indicates that the superconductor-insulator transition is controlled by a fixed point with a resistivity Rc of the order of the quantum resistance Rq=h/4e2. When a transverse magnetic field is applied, we find a strong nonmonotonous magnetoresistance for temperatures below Tc.
