We consider the diffusion constant, D, of a probe particle coupled to the East model, extending previous numerical results for this model to encompass a total of twelve orders of magnitude in relaxation time, {\tau}. Our considerations thus cover the full range of relaxation times relevant to experimental studies of reversible glass formers. Throughout this range, we show that the results of the model are consistent with a fractional Stokes-Einstein law, D \propto {\tau}^{-{\xi}} with {\xi} \approx 0.77. The same data can also be fit by relating D{\tau} to the East model excitation concentration q, specifically, D{\tau} \sim 1/q^{\alpha} with {\alpha} \approx 1.6. In either case, breakdown of the Stokes-Einstein relation in this kinetically constrained model is unquestionable and large., Comment: 1 page, 1 figure

Recent experimental observations have found two different kinds of ``strange kinetic behaviors" in individual semiconductor nanocrystals (or quantum dots). Fluorescence intermittency observed in the quantum dots shows power--law statistics in both {\it on} and {\it off} times. Spectral diffusion of the quantum dots is also described by power--law statistics in the sojourn times. Motivated by these experimental observations we consider two different but related problems: (a) a stochastic lineshape theory for the Kubo-Anderson oscillator whose frequency modulation follows power-law statistics and (b) photon counting statistics of quantum dots whose intensity fluctuation is characterized by power-law kinetics. In the first problem, we derive an analytical expression for the lineshape formula and find rich type of behaviors when compared with the standard theory. For example, new type of resonances and narrowing behavior have been found. We show that the lineshape is extremely sensitive to the way the system is prepared at time $t=0$ and discuss the problem of stationarity. In the second problem, we use semiclassical photon counting statistics to characterize the fluctuation of the photon counts emitted from quantum dots. We show that the photon counting statistics problem can be mapped onto a L��vy walk process. We find unusually large fluctuations in the photon counts that have not been encountered previously. In particular, we show that $Q$ may increase in time even in the long time limit., accepted for publication in Chemical Physics, special issue on Strange Kinetics

Motivated by recent experiments we consider a stochastic lineshape theory for the case when the underlying process obeys power-law statistics, based on a generalized Anderson-Kubo oscillator model. We derive an analytical expression for the lineshape and find rich type of behaviors when compared with the standard theory, for example, new type of resonances and narrowing phenomena. We show that the lineshape is extremely sensitive to the way the system is prepared at time $t=0$ and discuss the problem of stationarity.
