Inequalities between transportation costs and Fisher information are known to characterize certain concentration properties of Markov processes around their invariant measures. This note provides a new characterization of the quadratic…
Let X be a Poisson point process of intensity lambda on the real line. A thickening of it is a (deterministic) measurable function f such that the union of X and f(X) is a Poisson point process of intensity lambda' where lambda'>lambda. An…
Most metrics between finite point measures currently used in the literature have the flaw that they do not treat differing total masses in an adequate manner for applications. This paper introduces a new metric $\bar{d}_1$ that combines…
The paper is concerned with the equilibrium distributions of continuous-time density dependent Markov processes on the integers. These distributions are known typically to be approximately normal, and the approximation error, as measured in…

We establish transportation cost inequalities (TCI) with respect to the quantum Wasserstein distance by introducing quantum extensions of well-known classical methods: first, using a non-commutative version of Ollivier's coarse Ricci…
We prove, using optimal transport tools, weighted Poincar'e inequalities for log-concave random vectors satisfying some centering conditions. We recover by this way similar results by Klartag and Barthe-Cordero-Erausquin for log-concave…

We give an algorithm to construct a translation-invariant transport kernel between ergodic stationary random measures $\Phi$ and $\Psi$ on $\mathbb R^d$, given that they have equal intensities. As a result, this yields a construction of a…
We establish a universal framework for concentration inequalities based on invariance under diffeomorphism groups. Given a probability measure $\mu$ on a space $E$ and a diffeomorphism $\psi: E \to F$, concentration properties transfer…
This paper presents different approaches, based on functional inequalities, to study the speed of convergence in total variation distance of ergodic diffusion processes with initial law satisfying a given integrability condition. To this…
By using the $\Phi$-entropy inequality derived in \cite{Wu, Ch} for Poisson measures, the same type of inequality is established for a class of stochastic differential equations driven by purely jump L\'evy processes. The semigroup…
We present a simple proof of the entropy-power inequality using an optimal transportation argument which takes the form of a simple change of variables. The same argument yields a reverse inequality involving a conditional differential…
The purpose of this paper is to estimate the intensity of a Poisson process $N$ by using thresholding rules. In this paper, the intensity, defined as the derivative of the mean measure of $N$ with respect to $ndx$ where $n$ is a fixed…
We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the second boundary value problem for a parabolic PDE of Monge-Amp\`ere type arising from optimal mass transport. Our main result is an exponential rate of convergence for solutions of this…

The telegraph process models a random motion with finite velocity and it is usually proposed as an alternative to diffusion models. The process describes the position of a particle moving on the real line, alternatively with constant…
We derive exact expressions for the finite-time statistics of extrema (maximum and minimum) of the spatial displacement and the fluctuating entropy flow of biased random walks. Our approach captures key features of extreme events in…
