Abstract
We study the localization phenomena in a one-dimensional lattice system with a uniformly moving disordered potential. At a low-moving velocity, we find a sliding localized phase in which the initially localized matter wave adiabatically follows the moving potential without diffusion, thus resulting in an initial state memory in the many-body dynamics. Such an intriguing localized phase distinguishes itself from the standard Anderson localization in two aspects: it is not robust against interaction, but persists in the presence of slowly varying perturbations. Such a sliding localized phase can be understood as a consequence of interference between the wave-packet paths under moving quasiperiodic potentials with various periods that are incommensurate with the lattice constant. The experimental realization and detection are also discussed.
