Pathwise stability for one-dimensional SDEs driven by Brownian motion and a symmetric stable process

We prove quantitative pathwise stability estimates for one-dimensional stochastic differential equations driven by a common Brownian motion and a common symmetric $\alpha$-stable process, where $\alpha\in(1,2)$. The comparison is made under a synchronous coupling and is measured by $\sup_{0\le t\le T}\mathbb E|X_t-\wt X_t|^{\alpha-1}$. The perturbed drift and Brownian diffusion coefficients are spatially Lipschitz, while the perturbed stable jump coefficient may be H\"older continuous down to the critical exponent $1/\alpha$. The estimate is expressed in terms of the initial error and three law-weighted coefficient errors: the drift error $B$, the Brownian diffusion error $A$, and the stable jump-coefficient error $S$. The Brownian component produces a second-order correction term in It\^o's formula. This term is controlled by a second-derivative estimate for a Komatsu-type mollification of $|x|^{\alpha-1}$. For stable jump coefficients with H\"older exponent $\wt\eta>1/\alpha$, the estimate gives explicit power rates in $B,A,S$; at $\wt\eta=1/\alpha$, it gives a logarithmic rate. The same method yields estimates with predictable forcing errors and time-uniform tail bounds via stopped quasi-martingales.

Existence of densities and atoms for the running maximum of time-inhomogeneous jump diffusions

We prove absolute continuity of the running maximum $X^{\ast}_T=\sup_{0\leq s\leq T}X_s$ of one-dimensional time-inhomogeneous L\'evy--It\^o diffusions driven by a Brownian motion and an independent non-truncated pure-jump L\'evy process. Using Bismut's directional Malliavin calculus on the Wiener--Poisson space together with the running-maximum criteria of Song--Xie and Nakagawa--Suzuki, we reduce the problem to constructing an admissible direction $\Theta$. The key is to ensure that the directional derivative $D_\Theta X_t$ is strictly positive for all $t\in(0,T]$. We give explicit directions in two regimes. In the uniformly elliptic case with time-inhomogeneous coefficients, a purely Brownian perturbation yields an explicit positive integral representation for $D_\Theta X_t$, and hence $X^{\ast}_T$ admits a density without truncating the jump component. In a Brownian-degenerate pure-jump model with a bounded deterministic time-dependent jump weight $\kappa(t)$ that may vanish on subintervals, we prove absolute continuity under the minimal nondegeneracy-in-time condition $\int_0^t \kappa(s)^2\,ds>0$ for every $t>0$ and infinite activity of the L\'evy measure. A weighted Poisson positivity lemma is the key new input. Finally, we show that silent initial intervals can create atoms and we derive an explicit atom--density decomposition.
