In recent years, extensive research on stochastic processes such as
neuron networks, molecular motors, dynamics models, anomalous
diffusion, and disordered media has led to the development of various
methods for applying the Classical and Quantum Smoluchowski Equation
to these phenomena. This book focuses on presenting the solution to
the Fokker-Planck equation using the Crank-Nicholson formalism. This
method is particularly effective for handling systems with numerous
interactions, requiring vector and matrix-oriented approaches suitable
for implementation in Matlab. Among the topics treated in the book
are: Dynamics of protons in DNA, Photosynthesis and the quantum
mechanochemical model, Entanglement, coherence and decoherence,
Excitons in the Fenna-Mathews-Olson complex, and Energy exchange
between cells. The author has made an incredible work in facilitating
the understanding of these complex topics. This book includes a brief
and clear explanation of the Quantum theory and also includes code to
build useful software to use in research environments. This volume is
particularly helpful for graduate students in physics and biology
interested in understanding biological processes with the use of
quantum physics tools.
