The main motivation of this paper is the following open problem: Is the hypercontractivity of the \emph{complex} polynomial Bohnenblust--Hille inequality an optimal result? We show that the solution to this problem has a close connection…
For general ferromagnetic Ising models whose coupling matrix has bounded spectral radius, we show that the log-Sobolev constant satisfies a simple bound expressed only in terms of the susceptibility of the model. This bound implies very…

The purpose of this article is to expose an algebraic closure property of supersolutions to certain diffusion equations. This closure property quickly gives rise to a monotone quantity which generates a hypercontractivity inequality. Our…
We give a sufficient and necessary condition for a probability measure $\mu$ on the real line to satisfy the logarithmic Sobolev inequality for convex functions. The condition is expressed in terms of the unique left-continuous and…
We investigate the hypercontractivity property of generalized Mehler semigroups on the $L^p$-scale with respect to invariant measures. This property is first obtained in the purely theoretical setting of skew operators and, subsequently,…
Through a new powerful potential-theoretic analysis, this paper is devoted to discovering the geometrically equivalent isocapacity forms of Chou-Wang's Sobolev type inequality and Tian-Wang's Moser-Trudinger type inequality for the fully…
This paper extends the Bakry-\'{E}mery theorem connecting the Ricci curvature and log-Sobolev inequalities to the matrix-valued setting. Using tools from noncommuative geometry, it is shown that for a right invariant second order…
We prove an abstract theorem giving a $\langle t\rangle^\epsilon$ bound ($\forall \epsilon>0$) on the growth of the Sobolev norms in linear Schr\"odinger equations of the form $i \dot \psi = H_0 \psi + V(t) \psi $ when the time $t \to…
Given a three dimensional pseudo-Einstein CR manifold $(M,T^{1,0}M,\theta)$, we study the existence of a contact structure conformal to $\theta$ for which the logarithmic Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (LHLS) inequality holds. Our approach…
We prove that every GNS-symmetric quantum Markov semigroup on a finite dimensional matrix algebra satisfies a modified log-Sobolev inequality. In the discrete time setting, we prove that every finite dimensional GNS-symmetric quantum…
We study different notions of quasiconvexity for a subgroup $H$ of a relatively hyperbolic group $G.$ The first result establishes equivalent conditions for $H$ to be relatively quasiconvex. As a corollary we obtain that the relative…
The subject is parametrices for semi-linear problems, based on parametrices for linear boundary problems and on non-linearities that decompose into solution-dependent linear operators acting on the solutions. Non-linearities of product type…
Under suitable conditions, we obtain some characterization of supercontractivity, ultraboundedness and ultracontractivity of the evolution operator $G(t,s)$ associated to a class of nonautonomous second order parabolic equations with…
For a closed connected surface with a metric g, we consider the regularized trace of the inverse of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. We minimize this on the class of smooth metrics conformal to g having the same area, and show that the…
In the paper, we prove an analogue of the Kato-Rosenblum theorem in a semifinite von Neumann algebra. Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a countably decomposable, properly infinite, semifinite von Neumann algebra acting on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$…
We establish a Sobolev-type inequality in Lorentz spaces for $\mathcal{L}$-superharmonic functions \[ \|u\|_{L^{\frac{nq}{n-\alpha q},t}(\mathbb{R}^n)} \leq c \left\| \frac{u(x) - u(y)}{|x-y|^{\frac{n}{q}+\alpha}}…

A criterion is presented for the Modified Logarithmic Sobolev inequality on metric measure spaces. The criterion based on U-bound inequalities introduced by Hebisch and Zegarlinski allows to show the inequality for measures that go beyond…
We show that the convolution of a compactly supported measure on $\mathbb{R}$ with a Gaussian measure satisfies a logarithmic Sobolev inequality (LSI). We use this result to give a new proof of a classical result in random matrix theory…
