We prove a refinement of the inequality by Hoffmann-Jorgensen that is significant for three reasons. First, our result improves on the state-of-the-art even for real-valued random variables. Second, the result unifies several versions in…
The Khinchin-Kahane inequality is a fundamental result in the probability literature, with the most general version to date holding in Banach spaces. Motivated by modern settings and applications, we generalize this inequality to arbitrary…
In this paper we first prove a number of important inequalities with explicit constants in the setting of the Heisenberg group. This includes the fractional and integer Sobolev, Gagliardo-Nirenberg, (weighted) Hardy-Sobolev, Nash…
Our goal is to find classes of convolution semigroups on Lie groups $G$ that give rise to interesting processes in symmetric spaces $G/K$. The $K$-bi-invariant convolution semigroups are a well-studied example. An appealing direction for…
We develop a unified strategy to obtain the geometric logarithmic Hardy inequality on any open set M of a stratified group, provided the validity of the Hardy inequality in this setting, where the so-called "weight" is regarded to be any…
In this paper we focus on different -- global, semi-local and local -- versions of Hoffman type inequalities expressed in a variational form. In a first stage our analysis is developed for generic multifunctions between metric spaces and we…
We prove that all (generalized) Higman groups on at least $5$ generators are superrigid for measure equivalence. More precisely, let $k\ge 5$, and let $H$ be a group with generators $a_1,\dots,a_k$, and Baumslag-Solitar relations given by…
We study (weakly) continuous convolution semigroups of probability measures on a Lie group G or a homogeneous space G/K, where K is a compact subgroup. We show that such a convolution semigroup is the convolution product of its initial…
In this paper we obtain logarithmic Hardy and Rellich inequalities on general Lie groups. In the case of graded groups, we also show their refinements using the homogeneous Sobolev norms. In fact, we derive a family of weighted logarithmic…
We investigate several functional and geometric inequalities on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^N$, with a primary emphasis on logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, Poincar\'e inequalities, and Beckner-type inequalities, all studied within the…
We employ a Markov semigroup approach combined with the $\Gamma$-calculus to establish a generalized Beckner inequality associated with weighted Gaussian measures. As a direct consequence, we derive the corresponding Poincar\'e inequality…
We consider Lie groups that are either Heintze groups or Sol-type groups, which generalize the three-dimensional Lie group SOL. We prove that all left-invariant Riemannian metrics on each such a Lie group are roughly similar via the…
This work builds on the foundation laid by Gordon and Wilson in the study of isometry groups of solvmanifolds, i.e. Riemannian manifolds admitting a transitive solvable group of isometries. We restrict ourselves to a natural class of…
This note concerns Loomis-Whitney inequalities in Heisenberg groups $\mathbb{H}^n$: $$|K| \lesssim \prod_{j=1}^{2n}|\pi_j(K)|^{\frac{n+1}{n(2n+1)}}, \qquad K \subset \mathbb{H}^n.$$ Here $\pi_{j}$, $j=1,\ldots,2n$, are the vertical…
The notion of $\Gamma$-symmetric space is a natural generalization of the classical notion of symmetric space based on $\z_2$-grading of Lie algebras. In our case, we consider homogeneous spaces $G/H$ such that the Lie algebra $\g$ of $G$…
Let G be a semisimple linear algebraic group defined over rational numbers, K be a maximal compact subgroup of its real points and {\Gamma} be an arithmetic lattice. One can associate a probability measure {\mu}(H) on {\Gamma}\G for each…
We reinterpret an inequality, due originally to Sidorenko, for linear extensions of posets in terms of convex subsets of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. We conjecture that the analogous inequalities hold in arbitrary…
Examples of almost-positively and quasi-positively curved spaces of the form M=H((G,h)xF) were discovered recently. Here, h is a left-invariant metric on a compact Lie group G, F is a compact Riemannian manifold on which the subgroup H of G…
Gromov asked if the bi-invariant metrics on a compact Lie group are extremal compared to any other metrics. In this note, we prove that the bi-invariant metrics on a compact connected semi-simple Lie group $G$ are extremal (in fact rigid)…
By applying results obtained from the new versions of the classical Levy, Ottaviani, and Hoffmann-Jorgensen (1974) inequalities proved by Li and Rosalsky(2013) and by using techniques developed by Hechner and Heinkel (2010), we provide a…
