Extending a work of Carlen and Lieb, Biane has obtained the optimal hypercontractivity of the $q$-Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup on the $q$-deformation of the free group algebra. In this note, we look for an extension of this result to the…
In this article we study singular subelliptic $p$-Laplace equations and best constants in Sobolev inequalities on nilpotent Lie groups. We prove solvability of these subelliptic $p$-Laplace equations and existence of the minimizer of the…
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…
We present a class of potentials $q \colon \mathbb{R}^{n} \to (0,\infty)$ that implies the weighted Schr\"odinger semigroup $\varphi^{-1}\mathrm{e}^{-tH}\varphi$ to map a weighted Lebesgue function space…
Let T : Lp --> Lp be a positive contraction, with p strictly between 1 and infinity. Assume that T is analytic, that is, there exists a constant K such that \norm{T^n-T^{n-1}} < K/n for any positive integer n. Let q strictly betweeen 2 and…
We generalize the concepts of weak quantum logarithmic Sobolev inequality (LSI) and weak hypercontractivity (HC), introduced in the quantum setting by Olkiewicz and Zegarlinski, to the case of non-primitive quantum Markov semigroups (QMS).…
In the setting of Carnot groups, we prove the $q-$Logarithmic Sobolev inequality for probability measures as a function of the Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance. As an application, we use the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the setting of Carnot…
Explicit sufficient conditions on the hypercontractivity are presented for two classes of functional stochastic partial differential equations driven by, respectively, non-degenerate and degenerate Gaussian noises. Consequently, these…
We study the connection between the $p$--Talagrand inequality and the $q$--logarithmic Sololev inequality for conjugate exponents $p\geq 2$, $q\leq 2$ in proper geodesic metric spaces. By means of a general Hamilton--Jacobi semigroup we…
We prove stability results in hypercontractivity estimates for the Hopf--Lax semigroup in $\mathbb R^n$ and apply them to deduce stability results for the Euclidean $L^p$-logarithmic Sobolev inequality for any $p>1$. As a main tool, we use…
The continuum $\varphi^4_2$ and $\varphi^4_3$ measures are shown to satisfy a log-Sobolev inequality uniformly in the lattice regularisation under the optimal assumption that their susceptibility is bounded. In particular, this applies to…
The hypercontractive inequality is a fundamental result in analysis, with many applications throughout discrete mathematics, theoretical computer science, combinatorics and more. So far, variants of this inequality have been proved mainly…
The classical hypercontractive inequality for the noise operator on the discrete cube plays a crucial role in many of the fundamental results in the Analysis of Boolean functions, such as the KKL (Kahn-Kalai-Linial) theorem, Friedgut's…
Let $M = \mathbb R^m \sharp \mathcal R^n$ be a non-doubling manifold with two ends $\mathbb R^m \sharp \mathcal R^n$, $m > n \ge 3$. Let $\Delta$ be the Laplace--Beltrami operator which is non-negative self-adjoint on $L^2(M)$. Then…
We show that a family of quantum Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups is hypercontractive. We also obtain the optimal order of the optimal time up to a constant for those elements whose Gibbs state is zero. The main ingredient of our proof is…
We study the notion of reverse hypercontractivity. We show that reverse hypercontractive inequalities are implied by standard hypercontractive inequalities as well as by the modified log-Sobolev inequality. Our proof is based on a new…

In this paper we develop the theory of quantum reverse hypercontractivity inequalities and show how they can be derived from log-Sobolev inequalities. Next we prove a generalization of the Stroock-Varopoulos inequality in the…
We prove an intrinsic equivalence between strong hypercontractivity and a strong logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the cone of logarithmically subharmonic functions. We introduce a new large class of measures, Euclidean regular and…
$\mu$ being a nonnegative measure satisfying some log-Sobolev inequality, we give conditions on F for the measure $\nu=e^{-2F} \mu$ to also satisfy some log-Sobolev inequality. Explicit examples are studied.
