Let $\mu$ and $\nu$ be two probability measures on $\R^d$, where $\mu(\d x)= \e^{-V(x)}\d x$ for some $V\in C^1(\R^d)$. Explicit sufficient conditions on $V$ and $\nu$ are presented such that $\mu*\nu$ satisfies the log-Sobolev, Poincar\'e…

We show how to use Lyapunov functions to obtain functional inequalities which are stronger than Poincar\'e inequality (for instance logarithmic Sobolev or $F$-Sobolev). The case of Poincar\'e and weak Poincar\'e inequalities was studied in…

We prove that for a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$, the Poincar\'e inequality for convex functions is equivalent to the weak transportation inequality with a quadratic-linear cost. This generalizes recent results by Gozlan et al. and…
Using measure-capacity inequalities we study new functional inequalities, namely L^q-Poincar\'{e} inequalities and L^q-logarithmic Sobolev inequalities. As a consequence, we establish the asymptotic behavior of the solutions to the…

Functional inequalities such as the Poincar\'e and log-Sobolev inequalities quantify convergence to equilibrium in continuous-time Markov chains by linking generator properties to variance and entropy decay. However, many applications,…
