Gradient estimates for SDEs Driven by Multiplicative L\'evy Noise

Gradient estimates are derived, for the first time, for the semigroup associated to a class of stochastic differential equations driven by multiplicative L'evy noise. In particular, the estimates are sharp for $\alpha$-stable type noises. To derive these estimates, a new derivative formula of Bismut-Elworthy-Li’s type is established for the semigroup by using the Malliavin calculus and a finite-jump approximation argument.
