Abstract:
We give a new method for proving the homomorphic property of a quantum stochastic flow satisfying a quantum stochastic differential equation with unbounded coefficients, under some further hypotheses. As an application, we prove a Trotter product formula for quantum stochastic flows and obtain quantum stochastic dilations of a class of quantum dynamical semigroups generalizing results of Goswami et al. (Inst H Poincare Probab Stat 41:505-522, 2005).
