We introduce a new entropy functional for nonnegative solutions of the heat equation on a manifold with time-dependent Riemannian metric. Under certain integral assumptions, we show that this entropy is non-decreasing, and moreover convex…

In this paper, the index groups for which the weighted Young's inequalities hold in both continuous case and discrete case are characterized. As applications, the index groups for the product inequalities on modulation spaces are…

The Hausdorff-Young inequality for Euclidean space, in its sharp form due to Beckner, gives an upper bound for the Fourier transform in terms of Lebesgue space norms, with an optimal constant. The extremizers have been identified by Lieb to…

Sharp $L^p$ extensions of Pitt's inequality expressed as a weighted Sobolev inequality are obtained using convolution estimates and Stein-Weiss potentials. More generally, optimal constants are obtained for the full Stein-Weiss potential as…

Yet another simple proof of the entropy power inequality is given, which avoids both the integration over a path of Gaussian perturbation and the use of Young's inequality with sharp constant or R\'enyi entropies. The proof is based on a…

We derive an adaptation of Li & Yau estimates for positive solutions of semilinear heat equations on Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci tensor. We then apply these estimates to obtain a Harnack inequality and to discuss…

We give a proof to the Li-Yau-Hamilton type inequality claimed by Perelman on the fundamental solution to the conjugate heat equation. The rest of the paper is devoted to improving the known differential inequalities of Li-Yau-Hamilton type…

This paper is twofold. In the first part, we present a refinement of the R\'enyi Entropy Power Inequality (EPI) recently obtained in \cite{BM16}. The proof largely follows the approach in \cite{DCT91} of employing Young's convolution…

We prove that the functional volume product for even functions is monotone increasing along the Fokker--Planck heat flow. This in particular yields a new proof of the functional Blaschke--Santal\'{o} inequality by K. Ball and also…

Sharp estimates of solutions of the classical heat equation are proved in $L^p$ norms on the real line.

In this work, we introduce a notion of dissipative weak solution for a system describing the evolution of a heat-conducting incompressible non-Newtonian fluid. This concept of solution is based on the balance of entropy instead of the…

In this short survey paper, we first recall the log gradient estimates for the heat equation on manifolds by Li-Yau, R. Hamilton and later by Perelman in conjunction with the Ricci flow. Then we will discuss some of their applications and…

We obtain the multi-point positive integer Lyapunov exponents of the Stochastic Heat Equation (SHE) and provide three expressions for them. We prove the result by matching the upper and lower bounds for the Lyapunov exponents. The upper…

We provide a simple physical interpretation, in the context of the second law of thermodynamics, to the information inequality (a.k.a. the Gibbs' inequality, which is also equivalent to the log-sum inequality), asserting that the relative…

In the previous work [35], the second and third authors established a Bochner type formula on Alexandrov spaces. The purpose of this paper is to give some applications of the Bochner type formula. Firstly, we extend the sharp lower bound…

The nonlinear Hausdorff-Young inequality follows from the work of Christ and Kiselev. Later Muscalu, Tao, and Thiele asked if the constants can be chosen independently of the exponent. We show that the nonlinear Hausdorff-Young quotient…

We study positive solutions to the heat equation on graphs. We prove variants of the Li-Yau gradient estimate and the differential Harnack inequality. For some graphs, we can show the estimates to be sharp. We establish new computation…
