Densities for rough differential equations under Hörmander's condition (Q974084): Difference between revisions

Considering a differential equation driven by a random Gaussian rough path on a Euclidean space, the authors prove under some assumptions, that if the vector fields of the equation satisfy the Hörmander condition, then the solution has a density with respect to the Lebesgue measure. As an example, equations driven by fractional Brownian motions with Hurst parameter \(H>1/4\) enter the framework of this article. The proof of this beautiful result uses some other results about rough paths (small time expansion, description of the support of Gaussian rough paths) jointly with techniques of the Malliavin calculus (differentiability with respect to Cameron-Martin perturbations, Malliavin matrix).
