We establish geometric inequalities in the sub-Riemannian setting of the Heisenberg group $\mathbb H^n$. Our results include a natural sub-Riemannian version of the celebrated curvature-dimension condition of Lott-Villani and Sturm and also…

Upper bounds on time-averaged heat transport are obtained for an eight-mode Galerkin truncation of Rayleigh's 1916 model of natural thermal convection. Bounds for the ODE model---an extension of Lorenz's three-ODE system---are derived by…

We provide deficit estimates for Nelson's hypercontractivity inequality, the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, and Talagrand's transportation cost inequality under the restriction that the inputs are semi-log-subharmonic, semi-log-convex, or…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for transport-entropy inequalities in dimension one. As an application, we construct a new example of a probability distribution verifying Talagrand's T2 inequality and not the logarithmic…

On the free, step $2$ Carnot groups of rank $n$ $\mathbb{G}_n$, the subRiemannian Brownian motion consists in a $\mathbb{R}^n$-Brownian motion together with its $\frac{n(n-1)}{2}$ L{\'e}vy areas. In this article we construct an explicit…

We prove Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities with three weights -- verifying a joint concavity condition -- on open convex cones of $\mathbb R^n$. If the weights are equal to each other the inequalities become sharp and we compute explicitly…

Let $X$ be an isotropic unimodal L\'{e}vy jump process on $\mathbb{R}^d$. We develop probabilistic methods which in many cases allow us to determine whether $X$ satisfies the elliptic Harnack inequality (EHI), by looking only at the jump…

We prove that under the heat semigroup $(P_\tau)$ on the Boolean hypercube, any nonnegative function exhibits a uniform tail bound that is better than Markov's inequality. Specifically, for any $\tau > 0$, $n \geq 1$, $\eta > e^3$, and $f:…
