We study the sample path regularity of the solutions of a class of spde's which are second order in time and that includes the stochastic wave equation. Non-integer powers of the spatial Laplacian are allowed. The driving noise is white in…
The $L^1$ transport-entropy inequality (or $T_1$ inequality), which bounds the $1$-Wasserstein distance in terms of the relative entropy, is known to characterize Gaussian concentration. To extend the $T_1$ inequality to laws of…
We develop transportation-entropy inequalities which are saturated for measures such that their log-density with respect to the background measure is an affine function, in the setting of the uniform measure on the discrete hypercube and…
Quantum functional inequalities (e.g. the logarithmic Sobolev- and Poincar\'e inequalities) have found widespread application in the study of the behavior of primitive quantum Markov semigroups. The classical counterparts of these…

In this article, we study the stochastic wave equation in arbitrary spatial dimension $d$, with a multiplicative term of the form $\sigma(u)=u$, also known in the literature as the Hyperbolic Anderson Model. This equation is perturbed by a…
We establish an improved form of the classical logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the Gaussian measure restricted to probability densities which satisfy a Poincar\'e inequality. The result implies a lower bound on the deficit in terms of…
We prove that diffusion equations with a space-time stationary and ergodic, divergence-free drift homogenize in law to a deterministic stochastic partial differential equation with Stratonovich transport noise. In the absence of spatial…
It is common practice to approximate a weakly nonlinear wave equation through a kinetic transport equation, thus raising the issue of controlling the validity of the kinetic limit for a suitable choice of the random initial data. While for…
