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…
An Ostrowski type integral inequality for convex functions and applications for quadrature rules and integral means are given. A refinement and a counterpart result for Hermite-Hadamard inequalities are obtained and some inequalities for…
We introduce extremal affine surface areas in a functional setting. We show their main properties. Among them are linear invariance, isoperimetric inequalities and monotonicity properties. We establish a new duality formula, which shows…
We introduce the concept of Gaussian integral isoperimetric transference and show how it can be applied to obtain a new class of sharp Sobolev-Poincar\'{e} inequalities with constants independent of the dimension. In the special case of…
Building on the inequalities for homogeneous tetrahedral polynomials in independent Gaussian variables due to R. Lata{\l}a we provide a concentration inequality for non-necessarily Lipschitz functions $f\colon \R^n \to \R$ with bounded…
We study functional inequalities for Markov chains on discrete spaces with entropic Ricci curvature bounded from below. Our main results are that when curvature is non-negative, but not necessarily positive, the spectral gap, the Cheeger…
In this paper we define an addition operation on the class of quasi-concave functions. While the new operation is similar to the well-known sup-convolution, it has the property that it polarizes the Lebesgue integral. This allows us to…
Affine invariant points and maps for sets were introduced by Gr\"unbaum to study the symmetry structure of convex sets. We extend these notions to a functional setting. The role of symmetry of the set is now taken by evenness of the…
We investigate the space of non-local Sobolev functions associated with an integral kernel. We prove an extension result, Sobolev and Poincar\'e inequalities and an isoperimetric inequality for the non-local perimeter restricted to a set.…
We develop an information-theoretic perspective on some questions in convex geometry, providing for instance a new equipartition property for log-concave probability measures, some Gaussian comparison results for log-concave measures, an…
In this paper we are focusing on functional inequalities on compact simple edge spaces. More precisely we address the question whether the classical functional inequalities (Sobolev, Poincar\'e) hold in this setting, and as a by-product of…
We prove that the exponent of the entropy of one dimensional projections of a log-concave random vector defines a 1/5-seminorm. We make two conjectures concerning reverse entropy power inequalities in the log-concave setting and discuss…
We present a logarithmic Sobolev inequality adapted to a log-concave measure. Assume that $\Phi$ is a symmetric convex function on $\dR$ satisfying $(1+\e)\Phi(x)\leq {x}\Phi'(x)\leq(2-\e)\Phi(x)$ for $x\geq0$ large enough and with…
The Riesz-Sobolev inequality relates the convolution of nonnegative functions on Euclidean space to the convolution of their symmetric nonincreasing rearrangements. We show that for dimension one, for indicator functions of sets, if the…
In this article, we prove that convex functions and log-convex functions obey certain general refinements that lead to several refinements and reverses of well known inequalities for matrices, including Young's inequality, Heinz inequality,…
We prove stability estimates for the Bakry-Emery bound on Poincar\'e and logarithmic Sobolev constants of uniformly log-concave measures. In particular, we improve the quantitative bound in a result of De Philippis and Figalli asserting…
We study the asymptotic behavior of three classes of nonlocal functionals in complete metric spaces equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a Poincar\'e inequality. We show that the limits of these nonlocal functionals are…
In a doubling metric measure space $(X,\rho,\mu)$ supporting a Poincar\'e inequality, we give a new characterisation of first-order Sobolev spaces by mean oscillations, and extend previous characterisations of constant functions in terms of…
We study the behaviour of various Lyapunov functionals (relative entropies) along the solutions of a family of nonlinear drift-diffusion-reaction equations coming from statistical mechanics and population dynamics. These equations can be…
We establish a Wiener-type integral condition for first-order Sobolev functions defined on a complete, doubling metric measure space supporting a Poincar\'e inequality. It is stronger than the Lebesgue point property, except for a marginal…
