Abstract: The paper is concerned with the change of probability measures mu along non-random probability measure valued trajectories ut, tin[−1,1]. Typically solutions to non-linear PDEs, modeling spatial development as time progresses, generate such trajectories. Depending on in which direction the map uequivu0mapstout does not exit the state space, for tin[−1,0] or for tin[0,1], quasi-invariance of the measure mu under the map umapstout is established and the Radon-Nikodym derivative of mucircut with respect to mu is determined. It is also investigated how Fr'echet differentiability of the solution map of the PDE can contribute to the existence of this Radon-Nikodym derivative. The first application is a certain Boltzmann type equation. Here the Fr'echet derivative of the solution map is calculated explicitly and quasi-invariance is established. The second application is a PDE related to the asymptotic behavior of a Fleming-Viot type particle system. Here quasi-invariance is obtained and it is demonstrated how this result can be used in order to derive a corresponding integration by parts formula.
