Generation of electron spin polarization in disordered organic semiconductors
The generation mechanisms of electron spin polarization (ESP) of charge
carriers (electrons and holes, called "doublets") in doublet-doublet
recombination and triplet-doublet quenching in disordered organic
semiconductors are analyzed in detail. The ESP is assumed to result from
quantum transitions between the states of the spin Hamiltonian of the pair of
interacting particles. The value of the ESP is essentially determined by the
mechanism of relative motion of particles. In our work we have considered the
cage and free diffusion models. The effect of possible attractive
spin-independent interactions between particles is also analyzed. Estimation
with obtained formulas shows that the proposed mechanisms can lead to a fairly
strong ESP much larger than the thermal one (at room temperatures)Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure
Magnetic field effects on electron-hole recombination in disordered organic semiconductors
Characteristic properties of magnetic field effects on spin selective
geminate and bulk electron-hole polaron pair (PP) recombination are analyzed in
detail within the approach based on the stochastic Liouville equation. Simple
expressions for the magnetic field (B) dependence of recombination yield and
rate are derived within two models of relative PP motion: free diffusion and
diffusion in the presence of well (cage). The spin evolution of PPs is
described taking in account the relaxation induced by hyperfine interaction,
anisotropic part of the Zeeman interaction induced, as well as -mechanism. A large variety of the -dependences of the recombination yield
and rate is obtained depending on the relative weights of
above-mentioned mechanisms. The proposed general method and derived particular
formulas are shown to be quite useful for the analysis of recent experimental
results.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figure
An Email Attachment is Worth a Thousand Words, or Is It?
There is an extensive body of research on Social Network Analysis (SNA) based
on the email archive. The network used in the analysis is generally extracted
either by capturing the email communication in From, To, Cc and Bcc email
header fields or by the entities contained in the email message. In the latter
case, the entities could be, for instance, the bag of words, url's, names,
phones, etc. It could also include the textual content of attachments, for
instance Microsoft Word documents, excel spreadsheets, or Adobe pdfs. The nodes
in this network represent users and entities. The edges represent communication
between users and relations to the entities. We suggest taking a different
approach to the network extraction and use attachments shared between users as
the edges. The motivation for this is two-fold. First, attachments represent
the "intimacy" manifestation of the relation's strength. Second, the
statistical analysis of private email archives that we collected and Enron
email corpus shows that the attachments contribute in average around 80-90% to
the archive's disk-space usage, which means that most of the data is presently
ignored in the SNA of email archives. Consequently, we hypothesize that this
approach might provide more insight into the social structure of the email
archive. We extract the communication and shared attachments networks from
Enron email corpus. We further analyze degree, betweenness, closeness, and
eigenvector centrality measures in both networks and review the differences and
what can be learned from them. We use nearest neighbor algorithm to generate
similarity groups for five Enron employees. The groups are consistent with
Enron's organizational chart, which validates our approach.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, 7 tables, IML'17, Liverpool, U

M-theory and Characteristic Classes
In this note we show that the Chern-Simons and the one-loop terms in the
M-theory action can be written in terms of new characters involving the
M-theory four-form and the string classes. This sheds a new light on the
topological structure behind M-theory and suggests the construction of a theory
of `higher' characteristic classes.Comment: 8 pages. Error in gravitational term fixed; minor corrections;

The Elliptic curves in gauge theory, string theory, and cohomology
Elliptic curves play a natural and important role in elliptic cohomology. In
earlier work with I. Kriz, thes elliptic curves were interpreted physically in
two ways: as corresponding to the intersection of M2 and M5 in the context of
(the reduction of M-theory to) type IIA and as the elliptic fiber leading to
F-theory for type IIB. In this paper we elaborate on the physical setting for
various generalized cohomology theories, including elliptic cohomology, and we
note that the above two seemingly unrelated descriptions can be unified using
Sen's picture of the orientifold limit of F-theory compactification on K3,
which unifies the Seiberg-Witten curve with the F-theory curve, and through
which we naturally explain the constancy of the modulus that emerges from
elliptic cohomology. This also clarifies the orbifolding performed in the
previous work and justifies the appearance of the w_4 condition in the elliptic
refinement of the mod 2 part of the partition function. We comment on the
cohomology theory needed for the case when the modular parameter varies in the
base of the elliptic fibration.Comment: 23 pages, typos corrected, minor clarification
Twisted K-Theory of Lie Groups
I determine the twisted K-theory of all compact simply connected simple Lie
groups. The computation reduces via the Freed-Hopkins-Teleman theorem to the
CFT prescription, and thus explains why it gives the correct result. Finally I
analyze the exceptions noted by Bouwknegt et al.Comment: 16 page
Duality symmetry and the form fields of M-theory
In previous work we derived the topological terms in the M-theory action in
terms of certain characters that we defined. In this paper, we propose the
extention of these characters to include the dual fields. The unified treatment
of the M-theory four-form field strength and its dual leads to several
observations. In particular we elaborate on the possibility of a twisted
cohomology theory with a twist given by degrees greater than three.Comment: 12 pages, modified material on the differentia
Nilpotent Classical Mechanics
The formalism of nilpotent mechanics is introduced in the Lagrangian and
Hamiltonian form. Systems are described using nilpotent, commuting coordinates
. Necessary geometrical notions and elements of generalized differential
-calculus are introduced. The so called geometry, in a special case
when it is orthogonally related to a traceless symmetric form, shows some
resemblances to the symplectic geometry. As an example of an -system the
nilpotent oscillator is introduced and its supersymmetrization considered. It
is shown that the -symmetry known for the Graded Superfield Oscillator (GSO)
is present also here for the supersymmetric -system. The generalized
Poisson bracket for -variables satisfies modified Leibniz rule and
has nontrivial Jacobiator.Comment: 23 pages, no figures. Corrected version. 2 references adde
