Smoothness of the law of the supremum of the fractional Brownian motion

Abstract
This note is devoted to prove that the supremum of a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $Hin left( 0,1right)$ has an infinitely differentiable density on $left( 0,infty right)$. The proof of this result is based on the techniques of the Malliavin calculus.
