We study stochastic evolution equations describing the dynamics of open quantum systems.

Then, we establish well-posedness and norm conservation property of a wide class of open quantum systems described in position representation. Moreover, we prove Ehrenfest-type theorems that describe the evolution of the mean value of quantum observables in open systems.

Abstract
We study stochastic evolution equations describing the dynamics of open quantum systems. First, using resolvent approximations, we obtain a sufficient condition for regularity of solutions to linear stochastic Schroedinger equations driven by cylindrical Brownian motions applying to many physical systems. Then, we establish well-posedness and norm conservation property of a wide class of open quantum systems described in position representation. Moreover, we prove Ehrenfest-type theorems that describe the evolution of the mean value of quantum observables in open systems. Finally, we give a new criterion for the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions to non-linear stochastic Schroedinger equations. We apply our results to physical systems such as fluctuating ion traps and quantum measurement processes of position.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
