Abstract
Using covariance identities based on the Clark-Ocone representation formula we derive Gaussian density bounds and tail estimates for the probability law of the solutions of several types of stochastic differential equations, including Stratonovich equations with boundary condition and irregular drifts, and equations driven by fractional Brownian motion. Our arguments are generally simpler than the existing ones in the literature as our approach avoids the use of the inverse of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator.
