Abstract: The statistical theory of certain complex wave interference phenomena, like the statistical fluctuations of transmission and reflection of waves, is of considerable interest in many fields of physics. In this article, we shall be mainly interested in those situations where the complexity derives from the quenched randomness of scattering potentials, as in the case of disordered conductors, or, more in general, disordered waveguides.
