Let $P_t$ be the diffusion semigroup generated by $L:=\Delta +\nabla V$ on a complete connected Riemannian manifold with $\operatorname {Ric}\ge-(\sigma ^2\rho_o^2+c)$ for some constants $\sigma, c>0$ and $\rho_o$ the Riemannian distance to…

This paper is devoted to improvements of Sobolev and Onofri inequalities. The additional terms involve the dual counterparts, i.e. Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev type inequalities. The Onofri inequality is achieved as a limit case of Sobolev type…

The purpose of this short note is to demonstrate uniform logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for the mean field gradient particle systems associated to an energy functional that is convex in the flat sense. A defective log-Sobolev inequality…

We consider two methods to establish log-Sobolev inequalities for the invariant measure of a diffusion process when its density is not explicit and the curvature is not positive everywhere. In the first approach, based on the Holley-Stroock…

We prove a sharp quantitative version for the stability of the Sobolev inequality with explicit constants. Moreover, the constants have the correct behavior in the limit of large dimensions, which allows us to deduce an optimal quantitative…

We consider a generic modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality (mLSI) of the form $\mathrm{Ent}_{\mu}(e^f) \le \tfrac{\rho}{2} \mathbb{E}_\mu e^f \Gamma(f)^2$ for some difference operator $\Gamma$, and show how it implies two-level…

Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) Inequality fails in the "critical" case: \mu=n. However, for discrete HLS, we can derive a finite form of HLS inequality with logarithm correction for a critical case: \mu=n and p=q, by limiting the inequality…

The present work concerns spherical spin glass models with disorder satisfying a uniform logarithmic Sobolev inequality. We show that the Hessian descent algorithm introduced by Subag can be extended to this setting, thanks to the abundance…

The nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation NLSE(p, \beta), -iu_t=-u_{xx}+\beta | u|^{p-2} u=0, arises from a Hamiltonian on infinite-dimensional phase space \Lp^2(\mT). For p\leq 6, Bourgain (Comm. Math. Phys. 166 (1994), 1--26) has shown that…

Relative to the Gaussian measure on $\mathbb{R}^d$, entropy and Fisher information are famously related via Gross' logarithmic Sobolev inequality (LSI). These same functionals also separately satisfy convolution inequalities, as proved by…
