Several matrix/operator inequalies are given. Most of them are unexpected extensions of the Araki Log-majorization theorem, obtained thanks to a new log-majorization for positive linear maps and normal operators (Theorem 2.9). The main idea…
Let $E \subset \mathbb R^d$, $d \ge 2$, be compact, and let $\phi(x,y)$ be a smooth function satisfying the Phong--Stein rotational curvature condition on $\{\phi(x,y)=1\}$. We prove that if $\dim_{\mathcal H}(E)>1$, then $$…
Young's convolution inequality provides an upper bound for the convolution of functions in terms of $L^p$ norms. It is known that for certain groups, including Heisenberg groups, the optimal constant in this inequality is equal to that for…
We present some reverse Young-type inequalities for the Hilbert-Schmidt norm as well as any unitarily invariant norm. Furthermore, we give some inequalities dealing with operator means. More precisely, we show that if $A, B\in {\mathfrak…
Let $(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, (\mathcal{F})_{t\ge 0}, P)$ be a complete stochastic basis, $X$ a semimartingale with predictable compensator $(B, C, \nu)$. Consider a family of probability measures $\mathbf{P}=( {P}^{n, \psi}, \psi\in \Psi,…
We study trace inequalities of the type $$ \| T_k f\|_{L^q(d\mu)}\leq C \|f\|_{L^p(d\sigma)}, \qquad f \in L^p(d\sigma), $$ in the ``upper triangle case'' $1 \leq q<p$ for integral operators $T_k$ with positive kernels, where $d\sigma$ and…
We provide an introduction to logarithmic potential theory in the complex plane that particularly emphasizes its usefulness in the theory of polynomial and rational approximation. The reader is invited to explore the notions of Fekete…
We prove that if a triplet of functions satisfies almost equality in the Pr\'ekopa-Leindler inequality, then these functions are close to a common log-concave function, up to multiplication and rescaling. Our result holds for general…
Let $f$ be an $E$-function (in Siegel's sense) not of the form $e^{\beta z}$, $\beta \in \overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, and let $\log$ denote any fixed determination of the complex logarithm. We first prove that there exists a finite set $S(f)$…
A conjecture -- \emph{the modified super-additivity inequality} of relative entropy -- was proposed in \cite{Zhang2012}: There exist three unitary operators $U_A\in \unitary{\cH_A},U_B\in \unitary{\cH_B}$, and $U_{AB}\in \unitary{\cH_A\ot…
The goal of the article is to improve constants in the infimum convolution inequalities (IC for short) which were introduced by R. Lata{\l}a and J.O. Wojtaszczyk. We show that the exponential distribution satisfies IC with constant $2$ but…
Let Z be a strictly a-stable real Levy process (a>1) and X be a fluctuating b-homogeneous additive functional of Z. We investigate the asymptotics of the first passage-time of X above 1, and give a general upper bound. When Z has no…
This article presents an elementary proof of the Implicit Function Theorem for differentiable maps F(x,y), defined on a finite-dimensional Euclidean space, with $\frac{\partial F}{\partial y}(x,y)$ only continuous at the base point. In the…
Audenaert and Datta recently introduced a two-parameter family of relative R\'{e}nyi entropies, known as the $\alpha$-$z$-relative R\'{e}nyi entropies. The definition of the $\alpha$-$z$-relative R\'{e}nyi entropy unifies all previously…
We prove a new inequality which improves on the classical Hardy inequality in the sense that a nonlinear integral quantity with super-quadratic growth, which is computed with respect to an inverse square weight, is controlled by the energy.…
We study an array of strongly correlated quantum dots of complex SYK type and account for the effects of quadratic terms added to the SYK Hamiltonian; both local terms and inter-dot tunneling are considered in the non-Fermi-liquid…
We use the Falcone-Takesaki non-commutative flow of weights and the resulting theory of non-commutative Lp spaces in order to define the family of relative entropy functionals that naturally generalise the quantum relative entropies of…
We prove that logarithmically divergent one-loop lattice Feynman integrals have the general form I(p,a) = f(p)log(aM)+g(p,M) up to terms which vanish for lattice spacing a -> 0. Here p denotes collectively the external momenta and M is an…
The sumset and inverse sumset theories of Freiman, Pl\"{u}nnecke and Ruzsa, give bounds connecting the cardinality of the sumset $A+B=\{a+b\;;\;a\in A,\,b\in B\}$ of two discrete sets $A,B$, to the cardinalities (or the finer structure) of…
We construct suitable metrics for two classes of topological dynamical systems (linear maps on the torus and non-invertible expansive maps on compact spaces) in order to get a lower bound for topological entropy in terms of the resulting…
