Inverted-region electron transfer as a mechanism for enhancing photosynthetic solar energy conversion efficiency.

abstract：:Recently it has become apparent that N = 2 supersymmetric quantum field theory has something to do with cluster algebras. I review one aspect of the connection: supersymmetric quantum field theories have associated hyperkähler moduli spaces, and these moduli spaces carry a structure that looks like an extension of the...
