"Guaranteed Cost LQG Control of Uncertain Linear Stochastic Quantum Systems," Ian R. Petersen, Professor of Electrical Engineering, School of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering, University of New South Wales at the Australian Defence Force Academy.

Abstract:
In this paper, we formulate and solve a guaranteed cost control problem for a class of uncertain linear stochastic quantum systems. For these quantum systems, a connection with an associated classical (non-quantum) system is first established. Using this connection, the desired guaranteed cost results are proved.

The theory presented is illustrated using an example from quantum optics.
