Notes:
This paper reviews recent progress in understanding the metal-insulator transition in a system of spin-1/2 interacting electrons in the presence of a non-magnetic random potential. Using results of recent experiments in doped semiconductors, it is argued that the metallic state near the transition can be described by a phenomenological two-fluid model of local moments and itinerant quasiparticles. A mean-field calculation on a disordered Hubbard model which justifies this two fluid model is described. Recent advances in the non-linear sigma model description of the transition are also discussed.
