Abstract

This paper concerns a nonlinear filtering problem with correlated noises and a one dimensional observation process with unbounded coefficients. First, we prove the continuity of the filter with respect to the paths of the observation process. With this aim, we define a formal continuous unnormalized filter and we prove a Kallianpur-Striebel formula. Then, by means of a result given by the Malliavin calculus, we prove the existence of a regular density for the filter. Finally, we prove that the unnormalized filter is the unique solution of the Zakai equation.
