On quantum stochastic master equations

Stochastic Master equations or quantum filtering equations for mixed states are well known objects in quantum physics. Building a mathematically rigorous theory of these equations in infinite-dimensional spaces has been a long standing open problem. The first objective of this paper is to give a solution to this problem under the assumption of bounded operators providing coupling with environment (or a measurement device). Furthermore, recently the author built the theory of the law of large number limit for continuously observed interacting quantum particle systems leading to quantum mean-field games. These limits are described by certain nontrivial extensions of quantum stochastic master equations that can be looked at as infinite-dimensional operator-valued McKean-Vlasov diffusions. The second objective of this paper is to provide a well-posedness result for these new class of McKean-Vlasov diffusions.
