Abstract
The Mello-Pereyra-Kumar theory is extended to arbitrary spin. Classification yields three universality classes. The average over disorder is related to geometrical concepts. The solution of the resulting differential equation is discussed, localization lengths and universal conductance fluctuations are computed.Keywords
