Poincar{\'e} inequalities are ubiquitous in probability and analysis and have various applications in statistics (concentration of measure, rate of convergence of Markov chains). The Poincar{\'e} constant, for which the inequality is tight,…

The goal of this paper is to push forward the study of those properties of log-concave measures that help to estimate their Poincar{\'e} constant. First we revisit E. Milman's result [40] on the link between weak (Poincar{\'e} or…

We study stability of the eigenvalues of the generator of a one dimensional reversible diffusion process satisfying some natural conditions. The proof is based on Stein's method. In particular, these results are applied to the Normal…

In this paper, we obtain stability results for the $L^{p}$-Poincar\'e inequality for both Lebesgue and Gaussian probability measures (Theorem 3.3 and Theorem 3.13) that involve explicit dependence on the geometry of the domain. As a…

We resolve a question of Carrapatoso et al. on Gaussian optimality for the sharp constant in Poincar\'e-Korn inequalities, under a moment constraint. We also prove stability, showing that measures with near-optimal constant are…

We study the notion of stochastic stability with respect to diffusive perturbations for flows with smooth invariant measures. We investigate the question fully for non-singular flows on the circle. We also show that volume-preserving flows…

We investigate stability of invariant measures of diffusion processes with respect to $L^p$ distances on the coefficients, under an assumption of log-concavity. The method is a variant of a technique introduced by Crippa and De Lellis to…

We present some classical and weighted Poincar\'e inequalities for some one-dimensional probability measures. This work is the one-dimensional counterpart of a recent study achieved by the authors for a class of spherically symmetric…

We discuss situations where perturbing a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$ does not deteriorate its Poincar\'e constant by much. A particular example is the symmetric exponential measure in $\mathbb{R}^n$, even log-concave perturbations…

In the context of one-dimensional diffusions, we present basic estimates (having the same lower and upper bounds with a factor of 4 only) for four Poincar\'e-type (or Hardy-type) inequalities. The derivation of two estimates have been open…
