Abstract

The existence and uniqueness problems for the pathwise Duncan-Mortensen-Zakai equation of nonlinear filtering are studied following the Robust Equation approach. It is shown here that several examples that include the Kalman-Bucy filtering case can be treated by means of a theorem that solves the Cauchy problem for the Robust Equation.
