Abstract
We prove rigorously the existence of a Lifschitz singularity in the density of states at zero energy in some random lattice systems of noninteracting bosons and fermions in any numberv of dimensions. The basic tool is a simple modification of the method of Fukushima to yield the correct upper and lower bounds for allv. We also comment on the mathematical difference between the models treated and the system of phonons with mass disorder in the harmonic approximation, whose behavior is known to be of Debye form, not Lifschitz, at low temperatures.
