We establish presumably optimal rates of normal convergence with respect to the Kolmogorov distance for a large class of geometric functionals of marked Poisson and binomial point processes on general metric spaces. The rates are valid…

First-order stochastic methods are the state-of-the-art in large-scale machine learning optimization owing to efficient per-iteration complexity. Second-order methods, while able to provide faster convergence, have been much less explored…

We prove a fractional version of Poincar\'e inequalities in the context of $\R^n$ endowed with a fairly general measure. Namely we prove a control of an $L^2$ norm by a non local quantity, which plays the role of the gradient in the…

Second-order self-force computations, which will be essential in modeling extreme-mass-ratio inspirals, involve two major new difficulties that were not present at first order. One is the problem of large scales, discussed in [Phys. Rev. D…

The Rogers-Shephard and Zhang's projection inequalities are two reverse, affine isoperimetric-type inequalities for convex bodies. Following a classical work by Schneider, both inequalities have been extended to the so-called $m$th-order…

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…

In the setting of a complete, doubling metric measure space $(X,d,\mu)$ supporting a $(1,1)$-Poincar\'e inequality, we show that for all $0<\theta<1$, the following fractional Poincar\'e inequality holds for all balls $B$ and locally…

We construct geodesics in the Wasserstein space of probability measure along which all the measures have an upper bound on their density that is determined by the densities of the endpoints of the geodesic. Using these geodesics we show…

We observe some higher order Poincare-type inequalities on a closed manifold, which is inspired by Hurwitz's proof of the Wirtinger's inequality using Fourier theory. We then give some geometric implication of these inequalities by applying…
