We describe a recent, one-parameter family of characterizations of Sobolev and BV functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$, using sizes of superlevel sets of suitable difference quotients. This provides an alternative point of view to the BBM formula by…

Our main result is a weighted fractional Poincar\'e-Sobolev inequality improving the celebrated estimate by Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu. This also yields an improvement of the classical Meyers-Ziemer theorem in several ways. The proof is…

We develop a technique to obtain new symmetrization inequalities that provide a unified framework to study Sobolev inequalities, concentration inequalities and sharp integrability of solutions of elliptic equations

We establish the existence and uniqueness of limits at infinity along infinite curves outside a zero modulus family for functions in a homogeneous Sobolev space under the assumption that the underlying space is equipped with a doubling…

Let $X$ be a noncomplete metric space satisfying the usual (local) assumptions of a doubling property and a Poincar\'e inequality. We study extensions of Newtonian Sobolev functions to the completion $\widehat{X}$ of $X$ and use them to…

Obtaining explicit stability estimates in classical functional inequalities like the Sobolev inequality has been an essentially open question for 30 years, after the celebrated but non-constructive result of G. Bianchi and H. Egnell in…

We relate transport-entropy inequalities to the study of critical points of functionals defined on the space of probability measures. This approach leads in particular to a new proof of a result by Otto and Villani [43] showing that the…

In this work we consider dimensional improvements of the logarithmic Sobolev, Talagrand and Brascamp-Lieb inequalities. For this we use optimal transport methods and the Borell-Brascamp-Lieb inequality. These refinements can be written as a…

In this paper, we prove several inequalities such as Sobolev, Poincar\'e, logarithmic Sobolev, which involve a general norm with accurate information of extremals, and are valid for some symmetric functions. We use Ioku's transformation,…

We establish Sobolev-Poincar\'e inequalities for piecewise $W^{1,p}$ functions over families of fairly general polytopic (thence also shape-regular simplicial and Cartesian) meshes in any dimension; amongst others, they cover the case of…

We introduce a new class of polynomials $\{P_{n}\}$, that we call polar Legendre polynomials, they appear as solutions of an inverse Gauss problem of equilibrium position of a field of forces with $n+1$ unit masses. We study algebraic,…

We develop in this paper an improvement of the method given by S. Bobkov and M. Ledoux. Using the Pr\'ekopa-Leindler inequality, we prove a modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality adapted for all measures on $\dR^n$, with a strictly convex…

In this paper, we study weighted fractional Sobolev-Poincar\'e inequalities for irregular domains. The weights considered here are distances to the boundary to certain powers, and the domains are the so-called $s$-John domains and…

Upper bounds for the probabilities $\mathbb{P}(F\geq \mathbb{E} F + r)$ and $\mathbb{P}(F\leq \mathbb{E} F - r)$ are proved, where $F$ is a certain component count associated with a random geometric graph built over a Poisson point process…

Langevin diffusions are rapidly convergent under appropriate functional inequality assumptions. Hence, it is natural to expect that with additional smoothness conditions to handle the discretization errors, their discretizations like the…

We prove $q$-super-Poincar\'e inequalities, $q \in [1, 2]$, for a class of exponential power type probability measures defined in terms of a norm in a number of subelliptic settings, primarily on stratified Lie groups but also in the…

This work is devoted to direct mass transportation proofs of families of functional inequalities in the context of one-dimensional free probability, avoiding random matrix approximation. The inequalities include the free form of the…

In this paper we prove that several natural approaches to Sobolev spaces coincide on the Vicsek fractal. More precisely, we show that the metric approach of Korevaar-Schoen, the approach by limit of discrete $p$-energies and the approach by…

We discuss a natural extension of Gilles Pisier's approach to the study of measure concentration, isoperimetry and Poincar\'e-type inequalities. This approach allows one to explore counterparts of various results about Gaussian measure in…

We develop in this paper an amelioration of the method given by S. Bobkov and M. Ledoux in GAFA (2000). We prove by Prekopa-Leindler Theorem an optimal modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality adapted for all log-concave measure on $\dR^n$.…
