Explicit sufficient conditions on the hypercontractivity are presented for two classes of functional stochastic partial differential equations driven by, respectively, non-degenerate and degenerate Gaussian noises. Consequently, these…

In this paper we study the Sobolev inequality in the Dunkl setting using two new approaches which provide a simpler elementary proof of the classical case $p=2$, as well as an extension to the coefficient $p=1$ that was previously unknown.…

Consider the variation seminorm of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup $H_t$ in dimension one, taken with respect to $t$. We show that this seminorm defines an operator of weak type $(1,1)$ for the relevant Gaussian measure. The analogous…

We consider generalised Mehler semigroups and, assuming the existence of an associated invariant measure $\sigma$, we prove functional integral inequalities with respect to $\sigma$, such as logarithmic Sobolev and Poincar\'{e} type.…

Consider the linear stochastic evolution equation dU(t) = AU(t) + dW_H(t), t\ge 0, where A generates a C_0-semigroup on a Banach space E and W_H is a cylindrical Brownian motion in a continuously embedded Hilbert subspace H of E. Under the…

We provide explicit lower bounds for the deficit in the Gaussian logarithmic Sobolev inequality in terms of differential operators that are naturally associated with the so-called Stein characterization of the Gaussian distribution. The…

The Harnack inequality established in [13] for generalized Mehler semigroup is improved and generalized. As applications, the log-Harnack inequality, the strong Feller property, the hyper-bounded property, and some heat kernel inequalities…

We develop the notions of hypercontractivity (HC) and the log-Sobolev (LS) inequality for completely bounded norms of one-parameter semigroups of super-operators acting on matrix algebras. We prove the equivalence of the completely bounded…

We study fractional hypoelliptic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operators acting on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$ satisfying the Kalman rank condition. We prove that the semigroups generated by these operators enjoy Gevrey regularizing effects. Two byproducts…

We derive sharp, local and dimension dependent hypercontractive bounds on the Markov kernel of a large class of diffusion semigroups. Unlike the dimension free ones, they capture refined properties of Markov kernels, such as trace…

We establish a Sobolev-type inequality in Lorentz spaces for $\mathcal{L}$-superharmonic functions \[ \|u\|_{L^{\frac{nq}{n-\alpha q},t}(\mathbb{R}^n)} \leq c \left\| \frac{u(x) - u(y)}{|x-y|^{\frac{n}{q}+\alpha}}…

We show that for a hypoelliptic Dirichlet form operator A on a stratified complex Lie group, if the logarithmic Sobolev inequality holds, then a holomorphic projection of A is strongly hypercontractive in the sense of Janson. This extends…

For any $1 < p < q < \infty$, we investigate fixed-time hypercontractive bounds from $L^p$ to $L^q$ of Poisson semigroups associated with the Ornstein--Uhlenbeck, Laguerre and Jacobi operators. We prove that, in the Ornstein--Uhlenbeck and…

Let (H_t) be the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup on R^d with covariance matrix I and drift matrix \lambda(R-I), where \lambda>0 and R is a skew-adjoint matrix and denote by \gamma_\infty the invariant measure for (H_t). Semigroups of this form…
