The conference seeks to build bridges across mathematics, physics, information, and life sciences in search of a new paradigm for information science and life science based on quantum theory. The 37 papers examine such topics as quantum uncertainty and decision making in game theory, self-collapses of quantum systems and brain activities, entangled effects of two consecutive pairs in residues and their use in alignment, sufficient algebraic conditions for identifying quantum states, phase transitions in quantum Markov chains on Cayley trees, the electron reservoir hypothesis for two-dimensional electrons, and predicting botulinum toxin structure based on in silico and in vitro analysis.

The purpose of this proceedings volume is to return to the starting point of bio-informatics and quantum information, 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, physics, information and life sciences, in particular, research for new paradigm for information science and life science on the basis of quantum theory.
