Hilbert C*- Modules and Quantum Markov Semigroups

This book explains the basic theory of Hilbert C-module in detail, covering a wide range of applications from generalized index to module framework. At the center of the book, the Beurling-Deny criterion is characterized between operator valued Dirichlet forms and quantum Markov semigroups, hence opening a new field of quantum probability research. The general scope of the book includes: basic theory of Hilbert C-modules; generalized indices and module frames; operator valued Dirichlet forms; and quantum Markov semigroups.
This book will be of value to scholars and graduate students in the fields of operator algebra, quantum probability and quantum information.

Provides detailed explanation of the basic theory of Hilbert C*-Module Includes wide-ranging applications, from generalized index to module framework Characterizes the Beurling-Deny criterion between operator valued Dirichlet forms and quantum Markov semigroups
