We prove a nonlinear variant of the general Brascamp-Lieb inequality. Instances of this inequality are quite prevalent in analysis, and we illustrate this with substantial applications in harmonic analysis and partial differential…
We derive two upper bounds for the probability of deviation of a vector-valued Lipschitz function of a collection of random variables from its expected value. The resulting upper bounds can be tighter than bounds obtained by a direct…
We investigate geometric and functional inequalities for the class of log-concave probability sequences. We prove dilation inequalities for log-concave probability measures on the integers. A functional analogue of this geometric inequality…
We introduce the notion of an interpolating path on the set of probability measures on finite graphs. Using this notion, we first prove a displacement convexity property of entropy along such a path and derive Prekopa-Leindler type…
The Borell-Brascamp-Lieb inequality is a classical extension of the Pr\'ekopa-Leindler inequality, which in turn is a functional counterpart of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality. The stability of these inequalities has received significant…
A well-known consequence of the Pr{\'e}kopa-Leindler inequality is the preservation of logconcavity by the heat semigroup. Unfortunately, this property does not hold for more general semigroups. In this paper, we exhibit a slightly weaker…
We study the convergence properties of the original and away-step Frank-Wolfe algorithms for linearly constrained stochastic optimization assuming the availability of unbiased objective function gradient estimates. The objective function is…
Given a Lipschitz or smooth convex function $\, f:K \to \mathbb{R}$ for a bounded polytope $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ defined by $m$ inequalities, we consider the problem of sampling from the log-concave distribution $\pi(\theta) \propto…
We prove an $L^2$-stability estimate for the variance Brascamp-Lieb inequality [J. Funct. Anal. 22 (4), 366-389 (1976)] by bootstrapping the recent $L^1$-stability theorem of Machado and Ramos [arXiv:2511.22636] under an additional…
We investigate concentration properties of functions of random vectors with values in the discrete cube, satisfying the stochastic covering property (SCP) or the strong Rayleigh property (SRP). Our result for SCP measures include…
This study deals with continuous limits of interacting one-dimensional diffusive systems, arising from stochastic distortions of discrete curves with various kinds of coding representations. These systems are essentially of a…
We use the method of induction-on-scales to prove certain diffeomorphism invariant nonlinear Brascamp--Lieb inequalities. We provide applications to multilinear convolution inequalities and the restriction theory for the Fourier transform,…
We give a new approach, inspired by H\"ormander's $L^2$-method, to weighted variance inequalities which extend results obtained by Bobkov and Ledoux. It provides in particular a local proof of the dimensional functional forms of the…
In this article, we study the mean field limit of weakly interacting diffusions for confining and interaction potentials that are not necessarily convex. We explore the relationship between the large $N$ limit of the constant in the…
In this paper, we study two problems: (1) estimation of a $d$-dimensional log-concave distribution and (2) bounded multivariate convex regression with random design with an underlying log-concave density or a compactly supported…
In this work we present concentration inequalities for the sum $S_n$ of independent integer-valued not necessary indentically distributed random variables, where each variable has tail function that can be bounded by some power function…
In this paper we develop tools for studying limit theorems by means of convexity. We establish bounds for the discrepancy in total variation between probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ such that $\nu$ is log-concave with respect to $\mu$.…
We establish the log-concavity of the volume of central sections of dilations of the cross-polytope (the strong B-inequality for the cross-polytope and Lebesgue measure restricted to an arbitrary subspace).
We start by reviewing recent probabilistic results on ergodic sums in a large class of (non-uniformly) hyperbolic dynamical systems. Namely, we describe the central limit theorem, the almost-sure convergence to the gaussian and other stable…
We derive sufficient conditions for a probability measure on a finite product space (a spin system) to satisfy a (modified) logarithmic Sobolev inequality. We establish these conditions for various examples, such as the (vertex-weighted)…
