We study the stability of the Schr\"odinger equation generated by time-dependent Hamiltonians with constant form domain. That is, we bound the difference between solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation by the difference of their…

It is well known that quantum continuous observations and nonlinear filtering can be developed within the framework of the quantum stochastic calculus of Hudson-Parthasarathy. The addition of real-time feedback control has been discussed by…
In the study of open quantum systems, one commonly describes the evolution of a system of interest through reduced dynamics, obtained by treating the environment indirectly rather than as a part of the full model. This thesis presents an…

Linear dynamics restricted to invariant submanifolds generally gives rise to nonlinear dynamics. Submanifolds in the quantum framework may emerge for several reasons: one could be interested in specific properties possessed by a given…
