On the convex infimum convolution inequality with optimal cost function

Probability 2021-05-18 v1 Functional Analysis

Abstract

We show that every symmetric random variable with log-concave tails satisfies the convex infimum convolution inequality with an optimal cost function (up to scaling). As a result, we obtain nearly optimal comparison of weak and strong moments for symmetric random vectors with independent coordinates with log-concave tails.
