This volume mainly summarizes the invited talks presented at the 5th Asia-Pacific Workshop on Quantum Information Science (APWQIS) in conjunction with a Festschrift in honor of Professor Vladimir Korepin's 60th birthday. In this Festschrift, we have assembled a medley of interesting articles from some of his friends, well-wishers and collaborators. Comprising both reviews of the state-of-the-art and the latest results, this book covers various aspects of quantum information science, including topics like quantum discord, quantum computing, quantum entanglement, etc.

Martin C. Gutzwiller has made groundbreaking contributions in several fundamental areas of physics. These works range from the Gutzwiller wave function for strongly correlated electrons to the likewise eponymous trace formula, powerful for quantization of chaotic systems, and mathematical studies of the orbit of the moon. His interests also include the history of classical and quantum mechanics. In recognition of the high esteem that Martin enjoys among his peers, we tried to reach out to those who have been inspired by Martin's works and put forth a festschrift honoring our distinguished colleague on the occasion of his 75th birthday in October of 2000 in the following few special issues of Foundations of Physics. The first issue contains a collection of papers related to Solid State Physics, and the remaining issues will cover mostly other areas of physics. All the contributions appearing in the Gutzwiller special issues are invited papers dedicated to Martin Gutzwiller. We are delighted to be able to celebrate Martin's 75th birthday together in this festschrift. Martin, Happy Birthday and Many Happy Returns!
