19. Most of these developments in the theory of quantum many-body systems were put in a language that makes analogies to classical LTT effects far from obvious, although early work in this area did stress the connection with classical statistical mechanics, J. S. Langer and T. Neal, Phys. Rev. Lett. 16:984 (1966). Part of our motivation in the present paper is to elucidate the hidden close relation between these phenomena.

22. Historically, the term "weak localization" was first used for the transport properties of noninteracting disordered electrons in two-dimensions. It is now often used in the broader meaning of LTT and GSI phenomena in fermion systems, with or without interactions, in any dimensionality. For reviews, see, P. A. Lee and T. V. Ramakrishnan, Rev. Mod. Phys. 57:287 (1985); B. L. Altshuler and A. G. Aronov, in Electron-Electron Interactions in Disordered Systems, M. Pollak and A. L. Efros, eds. (North-Holland, Amsterdam, 1984), p. 1.

34. With this procedure, we are able to obtain results for the velocity autocorrelation function without explicitly using the properties of the Langevin forces, Eqs. (6). We do, however, need the various equal-time correlation functions as input. This is the same information that is contained in Eqs. (6).
35. We note that Eq. (15) is actually exact (see, e.g., ref. 29), although showing this requires a much more involved derivation.

68. For noninteracting electrons, there is consensus that this statement is true. Until recently, it was also believed to be true for interacting electrons, but experiments showing an apparent metal-insulator transition in two-dimmsional systems have cast doubt on this, see E. Abrahams, S. V. Kravchenko, and M. P. Sarachik, Rev. Mod. Phys. 73:251 (2001). The correct explanation of these observations is still being debated.
