In this paper, we establish the low-temperature asymptotics of the Poincar\'e inequality constant for a class of convex potentials satisfying a {\L}ojasiewicz inequality. In addition, we disprove a conjecture previously posed by Chewi and…

The irregularities of a distribution of $N$ points in the unit interval are often measured with various notions of discrepancy. The discrepancy function can be defined with respect to intervals of the form $[0,t)\subset [0,1)$ or arbitrary…

We derive transport-entropy inequalities for mixed binomial point processes, and for Poisson point processes. We show that when the finite intensity measure satisfies a Talagrand transport inequality, the law of the point process also…

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…

In this paper, we want to establish some general results in the Lorentzian optimal transport theory that have well-known Riemannian counterparts. As a first result, we will provide non-trivial assumptions on the measures to ensure strong…

The main result of this paper is that for any norm on a complex or real $n$-dimensional linear space, every extremal basis satisfies inverted triangle inequality with scaling factor $2^n-1$. Furthermore, the constant $2^n-1$ is tight. We…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for Borel measures to satisfy the inequality introduced by Komisarski, Rajba (2018). This inequality is a generalization of the convex order inequality for binomial distributions, which was proved…

If a functional in an inverse problem can be estimated with parametric rate, then the minimax rate gives no information about the ill-posedness of the problem. To have a more precise lower bound, we study semiparametric efficiency in the…

Let $$ T(q)=\sum_{k=1}^\infty d(k) q^k, \quad |q|<1, $$ where $d(k)$ denotes the number of positive divisors of the natural number $k$. We present monotonicity properties of functions defined in terms of $T$. More specifically, we proved…
