We present a pathwise proof of the HWI inequality which is based on en-tropic interpolations rather than displacement ones. Unlike the latter, entropic interpolations are regular both in space and time. Consequently, our approach is closer…

Quantum Markov semigroups characterize the time evolution of an important class of open quantum systems. Studying convergence properties of such a semigroup, and determining concentration properties of its invariant state, have been the…

We introduce the notion of an interpolating path on the set of probability measures on finite graphs. Using this notion, we first prove a displacement convexity property of entropy along such a path and derive Prekopa-Leindler type…

It is known that a quadratic transportation-information inequality $\mathrm{W_2I}$ interpolates between the Talagrand's inequality $\mathrm{W_2H}$ and the log-Sobolev inequality (LSI for short). The aim of the present paper is threefold:…

Relative to the Gaussian measure on $\mathbb{R}^d$, entropy and Fisher information are famously related via Gross' logarithmic Sobolev inequality (LSI). These same functionals also separately satisfy convolution inequalities, as proved by…

We show that if the random walk on a graph has positive coarse Ricci curvature in the sense of Ollivier, then the stationary measure satisfies a W^1 transport-entropy inequality. Peres and Tetali have conjectured a stronger consequence,…

We study the connection between the concavity properties of a measure $\nu$ and the convexity properties of the associated relative entropy $D(\cdot \Vert \nu)$ along optimal transport. As a corollary we prove a new dimensional…

We firstly describe a maximal inequality for dual Sobolev spaces W^{-1,p}. This one corresponds to a "Sobolev version" of usual properties of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator in Lebesgue spaces. Even in the euclidean space, this one…

We continue our investigation on the transportation-information inequalities $W_pI$ for a symmetric markov process, introduced and studied in \cite{GLWY}. We prove that $W_pI$ implies the usual transportation inequalities $W_pH$, then the…

Log-Sobolev inequalities (LSIs) upper-bound entropy via a multiple of the Dirichlet form (i.e. norm of a gradient). In this paper we prove a family of entropy-energy inequalities for the binary hypercube which provide a non-linear…
