  We study the influence of many-particle interaction in a system which, in the
single particle case, exhibits a metal-insulator transition induced by a finite
amount of onsite pontential fluctuations. Thereby, we consider the problem of
interacting particles in the one-dimensional quasiperiodic Aubry-Andre chain.
We employ the density-matrix renormalization scheme to investigate the finite
particle density situation. In the case of incommensurate densities, the
expected transition from the single-particle analysis is reproduced. Generally
speaking, interaction does not alter the incommensurate transition. For
commensurate densities, we map out the entire phase diagram and find that the
transition into a metallic state occurs for attractive interactions and
infinite small fluctuations -- in contrast to the case of incommensurate
densities. Our results for commensurate densities also show agreement with a
recent analytic renormalization group approach.
