This article is a mathematical analysis of the Open Quantum Brownian Motion. This object was introduced by Bernard, Bauer, Benoist and Tilloy as the limit of a family of Open Quantum Random Walks on the discrete line. We prove the convergence for the three possible descriptions of this object: the quantum trajectory satisfying a Belavkin Equation, the unitary evolution on the Fock space satisfying a quantum Langevin Equation, and the Lindbladian evolution. We introduce a very general framework for the continual measurement of non-demolition observables, which is applied to the measurement of the position of the Open Quantum Brownian Motion, and we probe some questions related to the convergence of processes in this context.
