We discuss approaches to computing eigenfunctions of the Ornstein--Uhlenbeck (OU) operator in more than two dimensions. While the spectrum of the OU operator and theoretical properties of its eigenfunctions have been well characterized in…
We study degenerate hypoelliptic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operators in $L^2$ spaces with respect to invariant measures. The purpose of this article is to show how recent results on general quadratic operators apply to the study of degenerate…
We study the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator and the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup in an open convex subset of an infinite dimensional separable Banach space $X$. This is done by finite dimensional approximation. In particular we prove…
If $Q$ is a real, symmetric and positive definite $n\times n$ matrix, and $B$ a real $n\times n$ matrix whose eigenvalues have negative real parts, we consider the Ornstein--Uhlenbeck semigroup on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with covariance $Q$ and…
This paper deals with study of Birkhoff-James orthogonality of a linear operator to a subspace of operators defined between arbitrary Banach spaces. In case the domain space is reflexive and the subspace is finite dimensional we obtain a…
In this paper, we prove that the first (positive) Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator \[ L(u)=\Delta u-(\nabla u,x), \] is strongly log-concave if the domain is bounded and convex, which improves the conclusion in [6].…
We investigate a class of spectral multipliers for an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator $\mathcal L$ in $\mathbb R^n$, with drift given by a real matrix $B$ whose eigenvalues have negative real parts. We prove that if $m$ is a function of Laplace…
If we add a simple rotation term to both the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup and the definition of the H-derivative, then analogue to the classical Malliavin calculus on the real Wiener space [I. Shigekawa, Stochastic analysis, 2004], we get a…
We study a generalized curvature dimension inequality which is suitable for subelliptic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type operators and deduce convergence to equilibrium in the $L^2$ and entropic sense. The main difficulty is that the operators we…

In this paper, we investigate the log-concavity of the kernel for the parabolic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator in a bounded, convex domain. Consequently, we get the preservation of the log-concavity of the initial datum by the related flow. As…
We characterize the $L^1(E;\mu_\infty)$-spectrum of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator, where $\mu_\infty$ is the invariant measure for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup. The main result covers the general case of an infinite-dimensional Banach…
A comprehensive analysis of Sobolev-type inequalities for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator in the Gauss space is offered. A unified approach is proposed, providing one with criteria for their validity in the class of rearrangement-invariant…
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process is interpreted as Brownian motion in a harmonic potential. This Gaussian Markov process has a bounded variance and admits a stationary probability distribution, in contrast to the standard Brownian motion. It…
