In this article we study generalization of the classical Talagrand transport-entropy inequality in which the Wasserstein distance is replaced by the entropic transportation cost. This class of inequalities has been introduced in the recent…
The hypercontractivity is proved for the Markov semigroup associated to a class of finite/infinite dimensional stochastic Hamiltonian systems. Consequently, the Markov semigroup is exponentially convergent to the invariant probability…

The equivalence between logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and hypercontractivity of solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations has been proved in [5]. We consider a semi-Lagrangian approximation scheme for the Hamilton-Jacobi equation and we…
Explicit sufficient conditions on the hypercontractivity are presented for two classes of functional stochastic partial differential equations driven by, respectively, non-degenerate and degenerate Gaussian noises. Consequently, these…
The hypercontractive inequality is a fundamental result in analysis, with many applications throughout discrete mathematics, theoretical computer science, combinatorics and more. So far, variants of this inequality have been proved mainly…
We establish a Sobolev-type inequality in Lorentz spaces for $\mathcal{L}$-superharmonic functions \[ \|u\|_{L^{\frac{nq}{n-\alpha q},t}(\mathbb{R}^n)} \leq c \left\| \frac{u(x) - u(y)}{|x-y|^{\frac{n}{q}+\alpha}}…
We provide deficit estimates for Nelson's hypercontractivity inequality, the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, and Talagrand's transportation cost inequality under the restriction that the inputs are semi-log-subharmonic, semi-log-convex, or…
In this paper, we present the geometric Hardy inequality for the sub-Laplacian in the half-spaces on the stratified groups. As a consequence, we obtain the following geometric Hardy inequality in a half-space on the Heisenberg group with a…
In this paper, we generalize a classical comparison result for solutions to Hamilton-Jacobi equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions, to solutions to Hamilton-Jacobi equations with non-zero boundary trace. As a consequence, we prove the…
Given $p,N>1,$ we prove the sharp $L^p$-log-Sobolev inequality on noncompact metric measure spaces satisfying the ${\sf CD}(0,N)$ condition, where the optimal constant involves the asymptotic volume ratio of the space. This proof is based…
We prove stability results in hypercontractivity estimates for the Hopf--Lax semigroup in $\mathbb R^n$ and apply them to deduce stability results for the Euclidean $L^p$-logarithmic Sobolev inequality for any $p>1$. As a main tool, we use…
Let $q(x)$ and $p(x)$ denote density functions on the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space, and let $p_i(\cdot|y_1,..., y_{i-1},y_{i+1},..., y_n)$ and $Q_i(\cdot|x_1,..., x_{i-1},x_{i+1},..., x_n)$ denote their local specifications. For a class…
We show that the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup associated with a general Poisson random measure is hypercontractive, whenever it is restricted to non-increasing mappings on configuration spaces. We deduce from this result some versions of…
