Restoration of Well-Posedness of Infinite-dimensional Singular ODE's via Noise

In this paper we aim at generalizing the results of A. K. Zvonkin and A. Y. Veretennikov on the construction of unique strong solutions of stochastic differential equations with singular drift vector field and additive noise in the Euclidean space to the case of infinite-dimensional state spaces. The regularizing driving noise in our equation is chosen to be a locally non-Hölder continuous Hilbert space valued process of fractal nature, which does not allow for the use of classical construction techniques for strong solutions from PDE or semimartingale theory. Our approach, which does not resort to the Yamada-Watanabe principle for the verification of pathwise uniqueness of solutions, is based on Malliavin calculus.

C-infinity-regularization by Noise of Singular ODE's

In this paper we construct a new type of noise of fractional nature that has a strong regularizing effect on differential equations. We consider an equation with this noise with a highly irregular coefficient. We employ a new method to prove existence and uniqueness of global strong solutions, where classical methods fail because of the "roughness" and non-Markovianity of the driving process. In addition, we prove the rather remarkable property that such solutions are infinitely many times classically differentiable with respect to the initial condition in spite of the vector field being discontinuous. The technique used in this article corresponds to the Nash-Moser principle combined with a new concept of "higher order averaging operators along highly fractal stochastic curves". This approach may provide a general principle for the study of regularization by noise effects in connection with important classes of partial differential equations.

Strong existence and higher order Fréchet differentiability of stochastic flows of fractional Brownian motion driven SDE's with singular drift

In this paper we present a new method for the construction of strong solutions of SDE's with merely integrable drift coefficients driven by a multidimensional fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter H < 1/2. Furthermore, we prove the rather surprising result of the higher order Frechet differentiability of stochastic flows of such SDE's in the case of a small Hurst parameter. In establishing these results we use techniques from Malliavin calculus combined with new ideas based on a "local time variational calculus". We expect that our general approach can be also applied to the study of certain types of stochastic partial differential equations as e.g. stochastic conservation laws driven by rough paths.

Hölder continuous densities of solutions of SDEs with measurable and path dependent drift coefficients

We consider a process given as the solution of a one-dimensional stochastic differential equation with irregular, path dependent and time-inhomogeneous drift coefficient and additive noise. Hölder continuity of the Lebesgue density of that process at any given time is achieved using a different approach than the classical ones in the literature. Namely, the Hölder regularity of the densities is obtained via a control problem by identifying the stochastic differential equation with the worst global Hölder constant. Then we generalise our findings to a larger class of diffusion coefficients. The novelty of this method is that it is not based on a variational calculus and it is suitable for non-Markovian processes.

Optimal bounds for the densities of solutions of SDEs with measurable and path dependent drift coefficients

We consider a process given as the solution of a stochastic differential equation with irregular, path dependent and time-inhomogeneous drift coefficient and additive noise. Explicit and optimal bounds for the Lebesgue density of that process at any given time are derived. The bounds and their optimality is shown by identifying the worst case stochastic differential equation. Then we generalise our findings to a larger class of diffusion coefficients.
