We identified the different ground states corresponding to the disordered Bose-Hubbard model at zero and finite temperatures and for small tunneling energies. Employing a field-theoretical approach, we constructed a strong-coupling expansion. By utilizing the Poincaré-Lindstedt method, we calculated a renormalized expression for the local density of states, providing clear differentiation between the Mott-insulator and Bose-glass phases. Applying a resummation technique, we computed the expression for the disorder ensemble average of the spectral function. Its analysis shows that disorder leads to an increase in the effective mass of both quasi-particle and -hole excitations of the Mott phase. And it yields the emergence of damped states, which exponentially decay during propagation in space and dominate the whole band when disorder becomes comparable to interactions. We argue that such damped-localized states correspond to single-particle excitations of the Bose-glass phase. Our results for the phase boundary compare well against stochastic and local mean-field numerical predictions.
