The cutoff phenomenon, conceptualized at the origin for finite Markov chains, states that for a parametric family of evolution equations, started from a point, the distance towards a long time equilibrium may become more and more abrupt for…
We consider the geometry of the space of Borel measures endowed with a distance that is defined by generalizing the dynamical formulation of the Wasserstein distance to concave, nonlinear mobilities. We investigate the energy landscape of…
We introduce a persistence-like pseudo-distance on Tamarkin's category and prove that the distance between an object and its Hamiltonian deformation is at most the Hofer norm of the Hamiltonian function. Using the distance, we show a…

We study the contraction properties (up to shift) for admissible Rankine-Hugoniot discontinuities of $n\times n$ systems of conservation laws endowed with a convex entropy. We first generalize the criterion developed in [47], using the…
The theory of optimal transport of probability measures has wide-ranging applications across a number of different fields, including concentration of measure, machine learning, Markov chains, and economics. The generalisation of optimal…
Correctly estimating the discrepancy between two data distributions has always been an important task in Machine Learning. Recently, Cuturi proposed the Sinkhorn distance which makes use of an approximate Optimal Transport cost between two…
It is known that the Poincar\'e inequality is equivalent to the quadratic transportation-variance inequality (namely $W_2^2(f\mu,\mu) \leqslant C_V \mathrm{Var}_\mu(f)$), see Jourdain \cite{Jourdain} and most recently Ledoux…
Transport properties provide important access to a solid's quasiparticles, such as quasiparticle density, mobility, and scattering. The transport of heat can be particularly revealing because, in principle, all types of excitations in a…
It is well known that isoperimetric inequalities imply in a very general measure-metric-space setting appropriate concentration inequalities. The former bound the boundary measure of sets as a function of their measure, whereas the latter…
We study the non-equilibrium dynamics of a one-dimensional complex Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev chain by directly solving for the steady state Green's functions in terms of small perturbations around their equilibrium values. The model exhibits…
A generalization of the Aubry-Andre model in two and three dimensions is introduced which allows for quasiperiodic hopping terms in addition to the quasiperiodic site potentials. This corresponds to an array of interstitial impurities…
A generalization of the Wasserstein metric, the integrated transportation distance, establishes a novel distance between probability kernels of Markov systems. This metric serves as the foundation for an efficient approximation technique,…
In this work, we give a sufficient condition for a step-two Carnot group to satisfy the quasi Bakry-\'Emery curvature condition. As an application, we establish the gradient estimate for the heat semigroup on the free step-two Carnot group…
We give by simple arguments sufficient conditions, so called Lyapunov conditions, for Talagrand's transportation information inequality and for the logarithmic Sobolev inequality. Those sufficient conditions work even in the case where the…
The thermal transport properties of a two dimensional Fermi gas are explored, for the full range of temperatures and densities. The heat flux is established by solving the Uehling-Uhlebeck equation using a relaxation approximation given by…

We propose a generalization of the Wasserstein distance of order 1 to the quantum states of $n$ qudits. The proposal recovers the Hamming distance for the vectors of the canonical basis, and more generally the classical Wasserstein distance…
