Ebook: Quantum Probability and Applications III: Proceedings of a Conference held in Oberwolfach, FRG, January 25–31, 1987

These proceedings of the first Quantum Probability meeting held in Oberwolfach is the fourth in a series begun with the 1982 meeting of Mondragone and continued in Heidelberg ('84) and in Leuven ('85). The main topics discussed were: quantum stochastic calculus, mathematical models of quantum noise and their applications to quantum optics, the quantum Feynman-Kac formula, quantum probability and models of quantum statistical mechanics, the notion of conditioning in quantum probability and related problems (dilations, quantum Markov processes), quantum central limit theorems. With the exception of Kümmerer's review article on Quantum Markov Processes, all contributions are original research papers.
