Abstract
A model of the metal-insulator thermal transition in ferromagnets with narrow allowed bands is described. In the model, the transition is a consequence of Anderson localization, which arises from fluctuations of the effective transport integral due to fluctuations of magnetic order. Analysis of the series for the mass operator of the unaveraged Green's function gives a formula for the position of the mobility threshold which determines the temperature dependence of resistivity over a wide temperature range, including the Curie point Tc.
