We prove that the quantum relative entropy decreases monotonically under the application of any positive trace-preserving linear map, for underlying separable Hilbert spaces. This answers in the affirmative a natural question that has been…
We study the exponential dissipation of entropic functionals for continuous time Markov chains and the associated convex Sobolev inequalities, including MLSI and Beckner inequalities. We propose a method that combines the Bakry \'Emery…
We develop in this paper an improvement of the method given by S. Bobkov and M. Ledoux. Using the Pr\'ekopa-Leindler inequality, we prove a modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality adapted for all measures on $\dR^n$, with a strictly convex…
We consider a quantum quasi-relative entropy $S_f^K$ for an operator $K$ and an operator convex function $f$. We show how to obtain the error bounds for the monotonicity and joint convexity inequalities from the recent results for the…
The exponential ergodicity of partially dissipative McKean-Vlasov SDEs in the \(L^1\)-Wasserstein distance has been extensively studied using asymptotic reflection coupling. However, the reflection coupling method is not applicable for the…
We develop variational representations for the deformed logarithmic and exponential functions and use them to obtain variational representations related to the quantum Tsallis relative entropy. We extend Golden-Thompson's trace inequality…
We establish sharp long time asymptotic behaviour for a family of entropies to defective Fokker-Planck equations and show that, much like defective finite dimensional ODEs, their decay rate is an exponential multiplied by a polynomial in…
Let $q(x)$ and $p(x)$ denote density functions on the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space, and let $p_i(\cdot|y_1,..., y_{i-1},y_{i+1},..., y_n)$ and $Q_i(\cdot|x_1,..., x_{i-1},x_{i+1},..., x_n)$ denote their local specifications. For a class…
We prove that in the context of general Markov semigroups Beckner inequalities with constants separated from zero as $p\to 1^+$ are equivalent to the modified log Sobolev inequality (previously only one implication was known to hold in this…
The von Neumann entropy of a generic quantum state is not unique unless the state can be uniquely decomposed as a sum of extremal or pure states. As pointed out to us by Sorkin, this happens if the GNS representation (of the algebra of…
A nonlinear fourth-order parabolic equation in one space dimension with periodic boundary conditions is studied. This equation arises in the context of fluctuations of a stationary nonequilibrium interface and in the modeling of quantum…
This text studies, on the one hand, certain monotonicity properties of the Araki-Uhlmann relative entropy and, on the other hand, unbounded perturbation theory of KMS-states which facilitates a proof of the two-sided Bogoliubov inequality…
Kolmogorov's exponential inequalities are basic tools for studying the strong limit theorems such as the classical laws of the iterated logarithm for both independent and dependent random variables. This paper establishes the Kolmogorov…
We develop a new framework for establishing approximate factorization of entropy on arbitrary probability spaces, using a geometric notion known as non-negative sectional curvature. The resulting estimates are equivalent to entropy…
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…
Von Neumann entropy has a natural extension to the case of an arbitrary semifinite von Neumann algebra, as was considered by I. E. Segal. We relate this entropy to the relative entropy and show that the entropy increase for an inclusion of…
We consider the entanglement entropy for a spacetime region and its spacelike complement in the framework of algebraic quantum field theory. For a M\"obius covariant local net satisfying a certain nuclearity property, we consider the von…
We prove a noncommutative $(p,p)$-Poincar\'e inequality for trace-symmetric quantum Markov semigroups on tracial von Neumann algebras, assuming only the existence of a spectral gap. Extending semi-commutative results of Huang and Tropp, our…
We obtain and study new $\Phi$-entropy inequalities for diffusion semigroups, with Poincar\'e or logarithmic Sobolev inequalities as particular cases. From this study we derive the asymptotic behaviour of a large class of linear…
We offer a new point of view on the (Modified) Log-Sobolev inequality and lower bounds on the Ricci-curvature in the setting where the dynamics are obtained as the limit of Markov processes. In this setting, the large deviation rate…
