We study a class of strongly irreducible, multidimensional, topological Markov shifts, comparing two notions of "symmetric measure": exchangeability and the Gibbs (or conformal) property. We show that equilibrium measures for such shifts…

We review and formulate results concerning log-concavity and strong-log-concavity in both discrete and continuous settings. We show how preservation of log-concavity and strongly log-concavity on $\mathbb{R}$ under convolution follows from…

Let $G/K$ be an irreducible symmetric space where $G$ is a non-compact, connected Lie group and $K$ is a compact, connected subgroup. We use decay properties of the spherical functions to show that the convolution product of any $r=r(G/K)$…

In this paper we study the class $\mathcal{E}_{m}(\Omega)$ of $m-$subharmonic functions introduced by Lu in \cite{L1}. We prove that the convergence in $m-$capacity implies the convergence of the associated Hessian measure for functions…

We establish universal modified log-Sobolev inequalities for reversible Markov chains on the boolean lattice $\{0,1\}^n$, under the only assumption that the invariant law $\pi$ satisfies a form of negative dependence known as the stochastic…

We provide a mild sufficient condition for a probability measure on the real line to satisfy a modified log-Sobolev inequality for convex functions, interpolating between the classical log-Sobolev inequality and a Bobkov-Ledoux type…

In this paper, we show that the extremal length functions on Teichm\"uller space are log-plurisubharmonic. As a corollary, we obtain an alternative proof of L.Liu and W.Su's results on the plurisubharmonicity of extremal length functions.…

The purpose of this short note is to demonstrate uniform logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for the mean field gradient particle systems associated to an energy functional that is convex in the flat sense. A defective log-Sobolev inequality…

Additional integral inequalities are obtained for integrals of the differences of subharmonic functions by Borel measures on balls in a multidimensional Euclidean space. These integrals are still estimated from above through the Nevanlinna…

For general ferromagnetic Ising models whose coupling matrix has bounded spectral radius, we show that the log-Sobolev constant satisfies a simple bound expressed only in terms of the susceptibility of the model. This bound implies very…

We give an alternative look at the log-Sobolev inequality (LSI in short) for log-concave measures by semigroup tools. The similar idea yields a heat flow proof of LSI under some quadratic Lyapunov condition for symmetric diffusions on…

Let X_1 ,..., X_n be a collection of binary valued random variables and let f : {0,1}^n -> R be a Lipschitz function. Under a negative dependence hypothesis known as the {\em strong Rayleigh} condition, we show that f - E f satisfies a…

One way to interpret smoothness of a measure in infinite dimensions is quasi-invariance of the measure under a class of transformations. Usually such settings lack a reference measure such as the Lebesgue or Haar measure, and therefore we…

In this paper, we introduce and study the weighted $\alpha$-subharmonic measure associated with a weight function $\psi$, extending the usual $\alpha$-subharmonic measure and reducing to it when $\psi \equiv -1$. Furthermore, we study the…
