Abstract.

We provide new representation formulas for Malliavin derivatives of diffusions, based on a transformation of the underlying processes. Both the univariate and the multivariate cases are considered. First order as well as higher order Malliavin derivatives are characterized. Numerical illustrations of the benefits of the transformation are provided.
