This volume seeks to return to the starting point of bio-informatics and quantum information, where these fields are constantly engaged in explosive advancements, and to seriously attempt mutual interaction between the two fields, with a view to enumerating and solving the many encountered fundamental problems. For such a purpose, we look for interdisciplinary bridges in mathematics, physics, information and life sciences, in particular, the research for a new paradigm for information science and life science on the basis of quantum theory.

This volume aims to return to the starting point of the fields of infinite dimensional analysis and quantum probability, fields that are growing rapidly at present, and to seriously attempt mutual interaction between the two, with a view to enumerating and solving the many fundamental problems they entail. For such a purpose, we look for interdisciplinary bridges in mathematics including classical probability and to different branches of physics, in particular, research for new paradigms for information science on the basis of quantum theory.

This volume is to pique the interest of many researchers in the fields of infinite dimensional analysis and quantum probability. These fields have undergone increasingly significant developments and have found many new applications, in particular, to classical probability and to different branches of physics. These fields are rather wide and are of a strongly interdisciplinary nature. For such a purpose, we strove to bridge among these interdisciplinary fields in our Workshop on IDAQP and their Applications that was held at the Institute for Mathematical Sciences, National University of Singapore from 3–7 March 2014. Readers will find that this volume contains all the exciting contributions by well-known researchers in search of new directions in these fields.

This volume contains the current research in quantum probability, infinite dimensional analysis and related topics. Contributions by experts in these fields highlight the latest developments and interdisciplinary connections with classical probability, stochastic analysis, white noise analysis, functional analysis and quantum information theory.This diversity shows how research in quantum probability and infinite dimensional analysis is very active and strongly involved in the modern mathematical developments and applications.Tools and techniques presented here will be of great value to researchers.

This volume is based on the fifth international conference of quantum bio-informatics held at the QBI Center of Tokyo University of Science.This volume provides a platform to connect mathematics, physics, information and life sciences, and in particular, research for new paradigm for information science and life science on the basis of quantum theory.The following topics are discussed:Cryptographic algorithms;Quantum algorithm and computation;Quantum entanglement;Quantum entropy and information dynamics;Quantum dynamics and time operator;Stochastic dynamics and white noise analysis;Brain activity;Quantum-like models and PD game;Quantum physics and superconductivity;Quantum tomography and sufficiency;Adaptation in Plants;Alignment of sequences;

The problem of extending ideas and results on the dynamics of infinite classical lattice systems to the quantum domain naturally arises in different branches of physics (nonequilibrium statistical mechanics, quantum optics, solid state, …) and new momentum from the development of quantum computer and quantum neural networks (which are in fact interacting arrays of binary systems) has been found.The stochastic limit of quantum theory allowed to deduce, as limits of the usual Hamiltonian systems, a new class of quantum stochastic flows which, when restricted to an appropriate Abelian subalgebra, produces precisely those interacting particle systems studied in classical statistical mechanics.Moreover, in many interesting cases, the underlying classical process “drives” the quantum one, at least as far as ergodicity or convergence to equilibrium are concerned. Thus many deep results concerning classical systems can be directly applied to carry information on the corresponding quantum system. The thermodynamic limit itself is obtained thanks to a technique (the four-semigroup method, new even in the classical case) which reduces the infinitesimal structure of a stochastic flow to that of four semigroups canonically associated to it (Chap. 1).Simple and effective methods to analyze qualitatively the ergodic behavior of quantum Markov semigroups are discussed in Chap. 2.Powerful estimates used to control the infinite volume limit, ergodic behavior and the spectral gap (Gaussian, exponential and hypercontractive bounds, classical and quantum logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, …) are discussed in Chap. 3.
