We develop in this paper an improvement of the method given by S. Bobkov and M. Ledoux. Using the Pr\'ekopa-Leindler inequality, we prove a modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality adapted for all measures on $\dR^n$, with a strictly convex…
We develop characterizations for Sobolev spaces of potential type on graded Lie groups, by means of Littlewood-Paley square functions, and Strichartz functionals involving second-order differences. A key role is played by some mean value…
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.…
In this paper we introduce and study a weakened form of logarithmic Sobolev inequalities in connection with various others functional inequalities (weak Poincar\'{e} inequalities, general Beckner inequalities...). We also discuss the…
We give a new proof of Aubin's improvement of the Sobolev inequality on $\mathbb{S}^{n}$ under the vanishing of first order moments of the area element and generalize it to higher order moments case. By careful study of an extremal problem…
This is the first of two works concerning the Sobolev calculus on metric measure spaces and its applications. In this work, we focus on several notions of metric Sobolev space and on their equivalence. More precisely, we give a systematic…
A family of logarithmic Sobolev inequalities on finite dimensional quantum state spaces is introduced. The framework of non-commutative $\bL_p$-spaces is reviewed and the relationship between quantum logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and the…
Functional inequalities such as the Poincar\'e and log-Sobolev inequalities quantify convergence to equilibrium in continuous-time Markov chains by linking generator properties to variance and entropy decay. However, many applications,…
We study the relations between (tight) logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, entropy decay and spectral gap inequalities for Markov evolutions on von Neumann algebras. We prove that log-Sobolev inequalities (in the non-commutative form defined…
We prove a sharp moment inequality for a log-concave or a log-convex function, on Gaussian random vectors. As an application we take a stability result for the classical logarithmic Sobolev inequality of L. Gross in the case where the…
This work studies mixtures of probability measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and gives bounds on the Poincar\'e and the log-Sobolev constant of two-component mixtures provided that each component satisfies the functional inequality, and both…
We show that there are no general stability results for the logarithmic Sobolev inequality in terms of the Wasserstein distances and $L^{p}(d\gamma)$ distance for $p>1$. To this end, we construct a sequence of centered probability measures…
We give some estimates of the remainder terms for several conformally-invariant Sobolev-type inequalities on the Heisenberg group, in analogy with the Euclidean case. By considering the variation of associated functionals, we give a…
In this paper we estimate the Sobolev embedding constant on general noncompact Lie groups, for sub-Riemannian inhomogeneous Sobolev spaces endowed with a left invariant measure. The bound that we obtain, up to a constant depending only on…
In this short article we show a particular version of the Hedberg inequality which can be used to derive, in a very simple manner, functional inequalities involving Sobolev and Besov spaces in the general setting of Lebesgue spaces of…
We investigate the interactions of functional rearrangements with Prekopa-Leindler type inequalities. It is shown that that a general class of integral inequalities tighten on rearrangement to "isoperimetric" sets with respect to a relevant…
The continuum $\varphi^4_2$ and $\varphi^4_3$ measures are shown to satisfy a log-Sobolev inequality uniformly in the lattice regularisation under the optimal assumption that their susceptibility is bounded. In particular, this applies to…
We establish new Euclidean Sobolev logarithmic inequalities in the framework of fractional Sobolev spaces and their weighted version. Our approach relies on a interpolation inequality, which can be viewed as a fractional…
We introduce a notion of "gradient at a given scale" of functions defined on a metric measure space. We then use it to define Sobolev inequalities at large scale and we prove their invariance under large-scale equivalence (maps that…
