Václav Špička, Theo M. Nieuwenhuizen, Peter D. Keefe
A review is given dealing with the recent state of the art of the following topics presented at the FQMT’11 conference: foundations of quantum physics, quantum measurement; nonequilibrium quantum statistical physics; quantum thermodynamics; quantum measurement, entanglement and coherence; dissipation, dephasing, noise, and decoherence; quantum optics; macroscopic quantum behavior; physics of quantum computing and quantum information; mesoscopic, nano-electro-mechanical systems and nano-optical systems; spin systems and their dynamics; biological systems and molecular motors; and cosmology, gravitation and astrophysics. The lectures and discussions at the FQMT’11 conference, as well as the contributions to the related topical issue, reveal important themes for future development. The recent literature is included.
