  In past ten years, modern societies developed enormous communication and
social networks. Their classification and information retrieval processing
become a formidable task for the society. Due to the rapid growth of World Wide
Web, social and communication networks, new mathematical methods have been
invented to characterize the properties of these networks on a more detailed
and precise level. Various search engines are essentially using such methods.
It is highly important to develop new tools to classify and rank enormous
amount of network information in a way adapted to internal network structures
and characteristics. This review describes the Google matrix analysis of
directed complex networks demonstrating its efficiency on various examples
including World Wide Web, Wikipedia, software architecture, world trade, social
and citation networks, brain neural networks, DNA sequences and Ulam networks.
The analytical and numerical matrix methods used in this analysis originate
from the fields of Markov chains, quantum chaos and Random Matrix theory.
