On stability of continuous-time quantum-filters
  We prove that the fidelity between the quantum state governed by a continuous time stochastic master equation driven by a Wiener process and its associated quantum-filter state is a sub-martingale. This result is a generalization to non-pure quantum states where fidelity does not coincide in general with a simple Frobenius inner product. This result implies the stability of such filtering process but does not necessarily ensure the asymptotic convergence of such quantum-filters.
