Stability of Densities for Perturbed Diffusions and Markov Chains
ESAIM: Probability and Statistics, Tome 21 (2017), pp. 88-112.

We study the sensitivity of the densities of non degenerate diffusion processes and related Markov Chains with respect to a perturbation of the coefficients. Natural applications of these results appear in models with misspecified coefficients or for the investigation of the weak error of the Euler scheme with irregular coefficients.
