On the strong Feller property for stochastic delay differential equations with singular drift (Q2186638)

The strong Feller property is proven for stochastic delay (or functional) differential equations with singular drift by extending an approach of \textit{B. Maslowski} and \textit{J. Seidler} [Probab. Theory Relat. Fields 118, No. 2, 187--210 (2000; Zbl 0966.60076)]. The argumentation is based on the wellposedness and the strong Feller property of the equations' drift-free version. To this aim, a certain convergence of random variables in topological spaces is investigated in order to deal with discontinuous drift coefficients.
