This textbook on quantum bio-informatics, volume 24 in the Quantum Probability and White Noise Analysis series from World Scientific, combines mathematics, physics and life sciences so that graduate students and researchers can delve deeper into the basis of quantum theory. Editors Accardi (mathematics, U. di Roma, "Tor Vergata", Italy), Freudenberg (mathematics, Brandenburgische Technische U. Cottbus, Germany) and Ohya (information sciences, Tokyo U. of Sciences, Japan) have collected these papers from the second international conference for Quantum Bio-Informatics at the Tokyo U. of Sciences, covering such topics as the mathematical foundations of quantum mechanics, chaos dynamics, quantum algorithm and computation and genome analysis. The integration of biological perspectives for microarray expression analysis is also discussed. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
The purpose of this proceedings volume is to look for interdisciplinary bridges in mathematics, physics, information and life sciences, in particular, research for new paradigms for information and life sciences on the basis of quantum theory. The main areas in this volume are all related to one of the following subjects: (1) mathematical foundation of quantum mechanics, (2) quantum information, (3) quantum algorithm and computation, (4) quantum communication, (5) white noise analysis and quantum dynamics, (6) chaos dynamics and adaptive dynamics, (7) experimental studies of quantum computer, (8) bio-informatics and (9) genome analysis.
