Consider an $ N \times N$ Hermitian one-dimensional random band matrix with band width $W > N^{1 / 2 + \varepsilon} $ for any $ \varepsilon > 0$. In a joint work with J. Yin, we proved that all eigenvectors are delocalized in high probability and universality of local eigenvalue statistics holds in the bulk of the spectrum in the large $N$ limit. These results were extended to dimension $d=2$ in a joint work with S. Dubova, K. Yang and J. Yin.
