Abstract: We study value functions which are viscosity solutions of certain Kolmogorov equations. Using PDE techniques we prove that they are $C^{1,alpha}$ regular on special finite dimensional subspaces. The problem has origins in pricing and hedging of derivatives of risky assets in mathematical finance.
