Abstract: The quantum derivatives of $e^{-A},A^{-1}$ and $logA$, which play a basic role in quantum statistical physics, are derived and their convergence is proven for an unbounded positive operator $A$ in a Hilbert space. Using the quantum analysis based on these quantum derivatives, a basic equation for the entropy operator in nonequilibrium systems is derived, and Zubarev's theory is extended to infinite order with respect to a perturbation. Using the first-order term of this general perturbational expansion of the entropy operator, Kubo's linear response is rederived and expressed in terms of the inner derivation $delt{a}_{calH}$ for the relevant Hamiltonian $calH$. Some remarks on the conductivity $sigma(omega)$ are given.
