Quantum Probability and Spectral Analysis of Graphs
This is the first book to comprehensively cover the quantum probabilistic approach to spectral analysis of graphs. This approach has been developed by the authors and has become an interesting research area in applied mathematics and physics. The book can

Foreword
It is a great pleasure for me that the new Springer Quantum Probability Programme is opened by the present monograph of Akihito Hora and Nobuaki Obata. In fact this book epitomizes several distinctive features of contemporary quantum probability: First of all the use of specific quantum probabilistic techniques to bring original and quite non-trivial contributions to problems with an old history and on which a huge literature exists, both independent of quantum probability. Second, but not less important, the ability to create several bridges among different branches of mathematics apparently far from one another such as the theory of orthogonal polynomials and graph theory, Neva
