Abstract

Products of random 2 × 2 matrices exhibit Gaussian fluctuations around almost surely convergent Lyapunov exponents. In this paper, the distribution of the random matrices is supported by a small neighbourhood of order of the identity matrix. The Lyapunov exponent and the variance of the Gaussian fluctuations are calculated perturbatively in and this requires a detailed analysis of the associated random dynamical system on the unit circle and its invariant measure. The result applies to anomalies and band edges of one-dimensional random Schrödinger operators.
