We consider Gibbs measures on the configuration space $S^{\mathbb{Z}^d}$, where mostly $d\geq 2$ and $S$ is a finite set. We start by a short review on concentration inequalities for Gibbs measures. In the Dobrushin uniqueness regime, we…

In a statistical mechanics model with unbounded spins, we prove uniqueness of the Gibbs measure under various assumptions on finite volume functional inequalities. We follow the approach of G. Royer (1999) and obtain uniqueness by showing…
We study a class of logarithmic Sobolev inequalities with a general form of the energy functional. The class generalizes various examples of modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities considered previously in the literature. Refining a…
We prove that for every locally stable and tempered pair potential $\phi$ with bounded range, there exists a unique infinite-volume Gibbs point process on $\mathbb{R}^d$ for every activity $\lambda < (e^{L} \hat{C}_{\phi})^{-1}$, where $L$…
We consider equilibrium states (that is, shift-invariant Gibbs measures) on the configuration space $S^{\mathbb{Z}^d}$ where $d\geq 1$ and $S$ is a finite set. We prove that if an equilibrium state for a shift-invariant uniformly summable…
We focus on the log-Sobolev inequality for spin systems on the lattice with interactions of higher order than quadratic. We show that if the one-dimensional single-site measure with boundaries satisfies the log-Sobolev inequality uniformly…
We study a model of spatial random permutations over a discrete set of points. Formally, a permutation $\sigma$ is sampled proportionally to the weight $\exp\{-\alpha \sum_x V(\sigma(x)-x)\},$ where $\alpha>0$ is the temperature and $V$ is…
We provide a quantification of the uniqueness of Gibbs measure for topologically mixing countable Markov shifts with locally H\"older continuous potentials. Corollaries for speed of convergence for approximation by finite subsystems are…
We derive sufficient conditions for a probability measure on a finite product space (a spin system) to satisfy a (modified) logarithmic Sobolev inequality. We establish these conditions for various examples, such as the (vertex-weighted)…
We are interested in the $q$ Logarithmic Sobolev inequality for probability measures on the infinite product of Heisenberg groups. We assume that the one site boundary free measure satisfies either a $q$ Log-Sobolev inequality or a U-Bound…
We give a simple development of the concentration properties of compound Poisson measures on the nonnegative integers. A new modification of the Herbst argument is applied to an appropriate modified logarithmic-Sobolev inequality to derive…
We consider mean-field limits for overdamped Langevin dynamics of $N$ particles with possibly singular interactions. It has been shown that a modulated free energy method can be used to prove the mean-field convergence or propagation of…
The mixing time of Markovian dissipative evolutions of open quantum many-body systems can be bounded using optimal constants of certain quantum functional inequalities, such as the modified logarithmic Sobolev constant. For classical spin…
We consider Glauber-type stochastic dynamics of continuous systems \cite{BCC02}, \cite{KL03}, a particular case of spatial birth-and-death processes. The dynamics is defined by a Markov generator in such a way that Gibbs measures of Ruelle…
For a general class of lattice-spin systems, we prove that an abstract Gaussian concentration bound implies positivity of lower relative entropy density. As a consequence we obtain uniqueness of translation-invariant Gibbs measures from the…
We study single-site stochastic and deterministic transforma- tions of one-dimensional Gibbs measures in the uniqueness regime with infinite-range interactions. We prove conservation of Gibbsianness and give quantitative estimates on the…
We consider continuous-time birth-and-death dynamics in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that admit at least one infinite-volume Gibbs point process based on area interactions as a reversible measure. For a large class of starting measures, we show that the…
We provide a sufficient condition for a measure on the real line to satisfy a modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality, thus extending the criterion of Bobkov and G\"{o}tze. Under mild assumptions the condition is also necessary.…
