Abstract: This will be a series of technical lectures on my recent work with Jian Ding.  After a brief review of the mathematics of Anderson localization, I will explain our unique continuation result.  To motivate our proof, I will describe the unique continuation result of Buhovski--Logunov--Malinnikova--Sodin for harmonic functions on the integer lattice.   I will then explain how to modify this argument, introducing tools from probability theory, to obtain a unique continuation result for Schrodinger operators on the lattice with random potentials.
