We prove that if a super-Poincar\'e inequality is satisfied by an infinitesimal generator $-A$ of a symmetric contracting semigroup then it implies a corresponding super-Poincar\'e inequality for $-g(A)$ with any Bernstein function $g$. We…
A suitable notion of hypercontractivity for a nonlinear semigroup $\{T_t\}$ is shown to imply Gagliardo--Nirenberg inequalities for its generator $H$, provided a subhomogeneity property holds for the energy functional $(u,Hu)$. We use this…
Assuming that a Nash type inequality is satisfied by a non-negative self-adjoint operator $A$, we prove a Nash type inequality for the fractional powers $A^{\alpha}$ of $A$. Under some assumptions, we give ultracontractivity bounds for the…
A set of functional inequalities - called Nash inequalities - are introduced and analyzed in the context of quantum Markov process mixing. The basic theory of Nash inequalities is extended to the setting of non-commutative Lp spaces, where…
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…
According to the theory of functional inequalities, a non-symmetric Markov semigroup has better properties than the corresponding symmetric one. For instance, there exist non-symmetric Markov semigroups which are hypercontractive (and thus…
A basic result in semigroup theory states that every $C_0$-semigroup is quasi-contractive with respect to some appropriately chosen equivalent norm. This paper contains a counterpart of this well-known fact. Namely, by examining the…
This article deals with a variation of constants type inequality for semigroups acting consistently on a scale of Banach spaces. This inequality can be characterized by a corresponding (easy to verify) inequality for their generators. The…
By using quasi-Banach techniques as key ingredient we prove Poincar\'e- and Sobolev- type inequalities for $m$-subharmonic functions with finite $(p,m)$-energy. A consequence of the Sobolev type inequality is a partial confirmation of B\l…
We prove strong hypercontractivity (SHC) inequalities for logarithmically subharmonic functions on $\RR^n$ and different classes of measures: Gaussian measures on $\RR^n$, symmetric Bernoulli and symmetric uniform probability measures on…
We consider a quantum generalization of the classical heat equation, and study contractivity properties of its associated semigroup. We prove a Nash inequality and a logarithmic Sobolev inequality. The former leads to an ultracontractivity…
We consider generalised Mehler semigroups and, assuming the existence of an associated invariant measure $\sigma$, we prove functional integral inequalities with respect to $\sigma$, such as logarithmic Sobolev and Poincar\'{e} type.…
We present new proofs of two theorems of E.B. Davies and B. Simon about ultracontractivity property for of semigroups of operators and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities with parameter (LSIWP for short) satisfied by the generator of the…
Functional inequalities such as the Poincar\'e and log-Sobolev inequalities quantify convergence to equilibrium in continuous-time Markov chains by linking generator properties to variance and entropy decay. However, many applications,…
An explicit sufficient condition on the hypercontractivity is derived for the Markov semigroup associated to a class of functional stochastic differential equations. Consequently, the semigroup $P_t$ converges exponentially to its unique…
Let $V\in C^2(\R^d)$ such that $\mu_V(\d x):= \e^{-V(x)}\,\d x$ is a probability measure, and let $\aa\in (0,2)$. Explicit criteria are presented for the $\aa$-stable-like Dirichlet form $$\E_{\aa,V}(f,f):= \int_{\R^d\times\R^d}…
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 prove a fractional version of Poincar\'e inequalities in the context of $\R^n$ endowed with a fairly general measure. Namely we prove a control of an $L^2$ norm by a non local quantity, which plays the role of the gradient in the…
Based on the convergence of their infinitesimal generators in the mixed topology, we provide a stability result for strongly continuous convex monotone semigroups on spaces of continuous functions. In contrast to previous results, we do not…
We obtain uniqueness theorems for harmonic and subharmonic functions of a new type. They lead to new analytic extension criteria and new conditions for stability of operator semigroups in Banach spaces with Fourier type.
