A first in the topic of molecular robotics based on a quantum field theoretic approach. This visionary book will inspire the development of molecular machines for medicinal or environmental applications. From the founder of synergetic theory (Haken) and the authors of the Haken-Levi principle, this book addresses both multi-robot systems and miniaturization to the nano-scale. Written with clear structure and language, catering to the needs of the readers who may come not only from physics and engineering, but also chemistry, mathematics or information theory. The reader also becomes acquainted with the appropriate modeling of the walking behavior of single molecular robots and their collective behavior. The book includes a derivation of the quantum version of the Haken-Levi principle and a detailed model of a molecular robot and hence is open to all who want to familiarize themselves with the basic principles and theoretical tools of the fascinating field of synergetic agents.
