We provide a mild sufficient condition for a probability measure on the real line to satisfy a modified log-Sobolev inequality for convex functions, interpolating between the classical log-Sobolev inequality and a Bobkov-Ledoux type…
We continue our investigation of the intertwining relations for Markov semigroups and extend the results of [9] to multi-dimensional diffusions. In particular these formulae entail new functional inequalities of Brascamp-Lieb type for…
We present a class of modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality, interpolating between Poincar\'e and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, suitable for measures of the type $\exp(-|x|^\al)$ or more complex $\exp(-|x|^\al\log^\beta(2+|x|))$…
In this paper, we consider Poincar\'e inequalities for non euclidean metrics on $\mathbb{R}^d$. These inequalities enable us to derive precise dimension free concentration inequalities for product measures. This technique is appropriate for…

We prove that the (B) conjecture and the Gardner-Zvavitch conjecture are true for all log-concave measures that are rotationally invariant, extending previous results known for Gaussian measures. Actually, our result apply beyond the case…
We prove that for a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$, the Poincar\'e inequality for convex functions is equivalent to the weak transportation inequality with a quadratic-linear cost. This generalizes recent results by Gozlan et al. and…
This is a survey of recent developments in the area of transport inequalities. We investigate their consequences in terms of concentration and deviation inequalities and sketch their links with other functional inequalities and also large…
The optimal transport map between the standard Gaussian measure and an $\alpha$-strongly log-concave probability measure is $\alpha^{-1/2}$-Lipschitz, as first observed in a celebrated theorem of Caffarelli. In this paper, we apply two…

In this paper we provide a proof of the Sobolev-Poincar\'e inequality for variable exponent spaces by means of mass transportation methods. The importance of this approach is that the method is exible enough to deal with different…
In this work we study the concentration properties of log-concave measures that are curved only on a subspace of directions. Proofs uses an adapted version of the stochastic localization process.
We formulate a non-commutative analog of the Brascamp-Lieb inequality, and prove it in several concrete settings.
We prove, using the Brascamp-Lieb inequality, that the Gaussian measure is the only strong log-concave measure having a strong log-concavity parameter equal to its covariance matrix. We also give a similar characterization of the Poisson…
Given a probability measure $\mu$ supported on a convex subset $\Omega$ of Euclidean space $(\mathbb{R}^d,g_0)$, we are interested in obtaining Poincar\'e and log-Sobolev type inequalities on $(\Omega,g_0,\mu)$. To this end, we change the…
Extending a result of Caffarelli, we provide global Lipschitz changes of variables between compactly supported perturbations of log-concave measures. The result is based on a combination of ideas from optimal transportation theory and a new…
By using optimal mass transportation and a quantitative H\"older inequality, we provide estimates for the Borell-Brascamp-Lieb deficit on complete Riemannian manifolds. Accordingly, equality cases in Borell-Brascamp-Lieb inequalities…
