In this work we provide performance guarantees for hypocoercive non-reversible MCMC samplers $X_t$ with invariant measure $\mu_*$; our results apply in particular to the Langevin equation, Hamiltonian Monte-Carlo, and the bouncy particle…

Concentration properties of functionals of general Poisson processes are studied. Using a modified $\Phi$-Sobolev inequality a recursion scheme for moments is established, which is of independent interest. This is applied to derive moment…

We show that for any metric probability space $(M,d,\mu)$ with a subgaussian constant $\sigma^2(\mu)$ and any set $A \subset M$ we have $\sigma^2(\mu_A) \leq c \log\left(e/\mu(A)\right)\,\sigma^2(\mu)$, where $\mu_A$ is a restriction of…

We derive a multiscale generalisation of the Bakry--\'Emery criterion for a measure to satisfy a Log-Sobolev inequality. Our criterion relies on the control of an associated PDE well known in renormalisation theory: the Polchinski equation.…
