Smoothing properties of McKean-Vlasov SDEs

Abstract

In this article, we develop integration by parts formulae on Wiener space for solutions of SDEs with general McKean-Vlasov interaction and uniformly elliptic coefficients. These integration by parts formulae hold both for derivatives with respect to a real variable and derivatives with respect to a measure understood in the sense of Lions. They allows us to prove the existence of a classical solution to a related PDE with irregular terminal condition. We also develop bounds for the derivatives of the density of the solutions of McKean-Vlasov SDEs.
