We study the log-concave measures, their characterization via the Pr\'ekopa-Leindler property and also define a subset of it whose elements are called super log-concave measures which have the property of satisfying a logarithmic Sobolev…

In a recent work, Klartag gave an improved version of Lichnerowicz' spectral gap bound for uniformly log-concave measures, which improves on the classical estimate by taking into account the covariance matrix. We analyze the equality cases…

Let b be an integer and mu a probability measure on [0,1] which is invariant and ergodic multiplication by b mod 1, and 0<dim(mu)<1. Let f be a diffeomorphism between open subsets of the line. We show that if the measures mu and f(mu) are…

We look at the covariant techniques and the ideas on constraints and gauge-invariance, which were recently employed in [gr-qc/0702104] to support earlier work by the same authors. That work was criticised in [gr-qc/0503042]. Using very…
