We give an alternative look at the log-Sobolev inequality (LSI in short) for log-concave measures by semigroup tools. The similar idea yields a heat flow proof of LSI under some quadratic Lyapunov condition for symmetric diffusions on…

We prove a curvature-dimension criterion and obtain logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for generalised Cauchy measures with optimal weights and explicit constants. In the one-dimensional case, this constant is even optimal. From these…

We consider a generic modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality (mLSI) of the form $\mathrm{Ent}_{\mu}(e^f) \le \tfrac{\rho}{2} \mathbb{E}_\mu e^f \Gamma(f)^2$ for some difference operator $\Gamma$, and show how it implies two-level…
