Abstract: In the present article, we discuss the role played by the interaction in the Anderson localization problem, for a system of interacting fermions in a one-dimensional disordered lattice, described by the Fermi Hubbard Hamiltonian, in presence of an on-site random potential. We show that, given the proper identification of the elementary excitations of the system described in terms of doublons and unpaired particles, the Anderson localization picture survives. Ensuing a "global quench", we show that the system exhibits a rich localization scenario, which can be ascribed to the nearly-free dynamics of the elementary excitations of the Hubbard Hamiltonian.
