We prove a log-Sobolev inequality for a certain class of log-concave measures in high dimension. These are the probability measures supported on the unit cube in R^n whose density takes the form exp(-H) where the function H is assumed to be…

Given a probability measure $\mu$ supported on a convex subset $\Omega$ of Euclidean space $(\mathbb{R}^d,g_0)$, we are interested in obtaining Poincar\'e and log-Sobolev type inequalities on $(\Omega,g_0,\mu)$. To this end, we change the…

We study settings in which mixture and joint distributions satisfy a Poincar\'{e} (or log-Sobolev) inequality induced by a marginal and a collection of conditional distributions that are assumed to satisfy Poincar\'{e} (or log-Sobolev,…

We present a local weighted estimate for the Riesz potential in $\mathbb{R}^n$, which improves the main theorem of Alberico, Cianchi, and Sbordone [C. R. Math. Acad. Sci. Paris \textbf{347} (2009)] in several ways. As a consequence, we…

Under Poincar\'e-type conditions, upper bounds are explored for the Kolmogorov distance between the distributions of weighted sums of dependent summands and the normal law. Based on improved concentration inequalities on high-dimensional…

This survey-type paper provides a common framework for a larger number of higher order concentration results (i.\,e., concentration results for non-Lipschitz functions which have bounded derivatives of higher order) in the spirit of…

In this paper, we offer a proof for a family of functional inequalities interpolating between the Poincar{\'e} and the logarithmic Sobolev (standard and weighted) inequalities. The proofs rely both on entropy flows and on a CD($\rho$, n)…

We give a functional version of the affine isoperimetric inequality for log-concave functions which may be interpreted as an inverse form of a logarithmic Sobolev inequality inequality for entropy. A linearization of this inequality gives…

In this paper we will establish different weighted Poincar\'{e} inequalities with variable exponents on Carnot-Carath\'{e}odory spaces or Carnot groups. We will use different techniques to obtain these inequalities. For vector fields…

Beckner's inequality is a family of inequalities that interpolates the two fundamental functional inequalities, the logarithmic Sobolev and Poincar\'e's inequalities. It is parametrized by exponent $p\in (1,2]$ and it implies the…

It is known that the Poincar\'e inequality is equivalent to the quadratic transportation-variance inequality (namely $W_2^2(f\mu,\mu) \leqslant C_V \mathrm{Var}_\mu(f)$), see Jourdain \cite{Jourdain} and most recently Ledoux…

Let $V$ be a locally bounded measurable function such that $e^{-V}$ is bounded and belongs to $L^1(dx)$, and let $\mu_V(dx):=C_V e^{-V(x)} dx$ be a probability measure. We present the criterion for the weighted Poincar\'{e} inequality of…
