We explore and generalize a Cauchy-Schwarz-type inequality originally proved in [Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra 35, 156-180 (2019)]: $\|\mathbf{v}^2\|\|\mathbf{w}^2\| - \langle\mathbf{v}^2,\mathbf{w}^2\rangle \leq…

In this paper, we are interested in Gaussian versions of the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality. We prove in a streamlined way a semigroup version of the Ehrard inequality for $m$ Borel or convex sets based on a previous work by Borell.…

In literature the Hermite-Hadamard inequality was eligible for many reasons, one of the most surprising and interesting that the Hermite-Hadamard inequality combine the midpoint and trapezoid formulae in an inequality. In this work, a…

We present a simple proof for bounding the smallest eigenvalue of the empirical covariance in a causal Gaussian process. Along the way, we establish a one-sided tail inequality for Gaussian quadratic forms using a causal decomposition. Our…

Given an energy-dissipating port-Hamiltonian system, we characterise the exponential decay of the energy via the model ingredients under mild conditions on the Hamiltonian density $\mathcal{H}$. In passing, we obtain generalisations for…

We recognise that an entropy inequality akin to the main intermediate goal of recent works (Gowers, Green, Manners, Tao [3],[2]) regarding a conjecture of Marton provides a black box from which we can also through a short deduction recover…

Consider the problem of estimating the mean of a Gaussian random vector when the mean vector is assumed to be in a given convex set. The most natural solution is to take the Euclidean projection of the data vector on to this convex set; in…

We improve and expand in two directions the theory of norms on complex matrices induced by random vectors. We first provide a simple proof of the classification of weakly unitarily invariant norms on the Hermitian matrices. We use this to…

Let $X_1,X_2,\ldots$ be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables, with mean zero and variance one. Let $W_n=(X_1+\ldots+X_n)/\sqrt{n}$. An old and celebrated result of Prohorov asserts that $W_n$ converges in total variation to the standard…
