Abstract

The possibility of Bose condensation into the lowest-energy, extended, Hartree-Fock eigenstate in the presence of a random potential is studied. Using the existing folklore about Anderson localization, and adding interactions, we find that the fluctuations are logarithmically divergent and that stable broken symmetry is impossible for n>~2.
