The classical Poincar\'e inequality establishes that for any bounded regular domain $\Omega\subset \R^N$ there exists a constant $C=C(\Omega)>0$ such that $$ \int_{\Omega} |u|^2\, dx \leq C \int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|^2\, dx \ \ \forall u \in…

We prove the following operator-coefficients free Poincar\'{e} inequality: $$|f(X)-E[f(X)]|_{2}\leq2|X|_{2}\|\widehat{\partial}_{X:B}[f(X)]\|_{\pi}, \quad f(X) \in \mathrm{dom}(\widehat{\partial}_{X:B}),$$ where $\|\cdot\|_{\pi}$ is the…

Poincar\'e inequality is a fundamental property that rises naturally in different branches of mathematics. The associated Poincar\'e constant plays a central role in many applications since it governs the convergence of various practical…

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 space-time invariances of the relativistic particle action for both the massive and massless cases. While the massive action has only the invariances associated to the Poincare algebra, we find that the invariances of the…

In the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure that supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that a set $E$ is of finite perimeter if and only if $\mathcal H(\partial^1 I_E)<\infty$, that is, if and only if the…

We show that for any metric probability space $(M,d,\mu)$ with a subgaussian constant $\sigma^2(\mu)$ and any set $A \subset M$ we have $\sigma^2(\mu_A) \leq c \log\left(e/\mu(A)\right)\,\sigma^2(\mu)$, where $\mu_A$ is a restriction of…

Let $G$ be a countable discrete group with an orthogonal representation $\alpha$ on a real Hilbert space $H$. We prove $L_p$ Poincar\'e inequalities for the group measure space $L_\infty(\Omega_H,\gamma)\rtimes G$, where both the group…

The main result of this paper supports a conjecture by C. P\'erez and E. Rela about a very recent result of theirs on self-improving theory. Also, we extend the conclusions of their theorem to the range $p<1$. As an application of our…

In this paper I assess the adequacy of no-conspiracy conditions employed in the usual derivations of the Bell inequality in the context of EPR correlations. First, I look at the EPR correlations from a purely phenomenological point of view…

This paper provides a discrete Poincar\'e inequality in $n$ space dimensions on a simplex $K$ with explicit constants. This inequality bounds the norm of the piecewise derivative of functions with integral mean zero on $K$ and all integrals…

For each integer $k>0$, let $n_k$ and $m_k$ be integers such that $n_k\geq 2, m_k\geq 2$, and let $\mathcal{D}_k$ be a subset of $\{0,\dots,n_k-1\}\times \{0,\dots,m_k-1\}$. For each $w=(i,j)\in \mathcal{D}_k$, we define an affine…

We prove that an approximated version of the Brunn--Minkowski inequality with volume distortion coefficient implies a Gaussian concentration-of-measure phenomenon. Our main theorem is applicable to discrete spaces.

While studying set function properties of Lebesgue measure, F. Barthe and M. Madiman proved that Lebesgue measure is fractionally superadditive on compact sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$. In doing this they proved a fractional generalization of the…

We present some extensions of Bernstein's concentration inequality for random matrices. This inequality has become a useful and powerful tool for many problems in statistics, signal processing and theoretical computer science. The main…

A twenty--dimensional space of charged solutions of spin--2 equations is proposed. The relation with extended (via dilatation) Poincar\'e group is analyzed. Locally, each solution of the theory may be described in terms of a potential,…

If for a vector space V of dimension g over a characteristic zero field we denote by $\wedge^iV$ its alternating powers, and by $V^\vee$ its linear dual, then there are natural Poincar\'e isomorphisms: $\wedge^i V^\vee \cong \wedge^{g-i}…

We study self-improving properties in the scale of Lebesgue spaces of generalized Poincar\'e inequalities in the Euclidean space. We present an abstract setting where oscillations are given by certain operators (e.g., approximations of the…

We prove a sharp inequality conjectured by Bobkov on the measure of dilations of Borel sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$ by a $s$-concave probability. Our result gives a common generalization of an inequality of Nazarov, Sodin and Volberg and a…
