We study functional inequalities (Poincar\'e, Cheeger, log-Sobolev) for probability measures obtained as perturbations. Several explicit results for general measures as well as log-concave distributions are given.The initial goal of this…

Let $[q] = \{0,1,\ldots,q-1\}$, let $\Delta[q]$ denote the simplex of probability measures on $[q]$, and let $\gamma$ denote the Lebesgue measure normalized on $\Delta[q]$. We prove that for any symmetric monotone function $f \colon[q]^n…

This paper deals with the invariance of a measure on Sobolev spaces of low regularity under the flow of the cubic non linear wave equation on the unit ball of 3 under the assumption of spherical symmetry. It presents two aspects, an…

This work studies mixtures of probability measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and gives bounds on the Poincar\'e and the log-Sobolev constant of two-component mixtures provided that each component satisfies the functional inequality, and both…

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 show that Lieb's concavity theorem holds more generally for any unitary invariant matrix function $\phi:\mathbf{H}_+^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}_+^n$ that is concave and satisfies H\"older's inequality. Concretely, we prove the joint…

By applying the ABP method, we establish both Log Sobolev type inequality and Michael Simon Sobolev inequality for smooth symmetric uniformly positive definite (0,2) tensor fields in manifolds with nonnegative sectional curvature.

This is a continuation of our previous work 0712.4092. It is well known that various isoperimetric inequalities imply their functional ``counterparts'', but in general this is not an equivalence. We show that under certain convexity…

We study the mixing time of two popular discrete-time Markov chains in continuous space, the Unadjusted Langevin Algorithm and the Proximal Sampler, which are discretizations of the Langevin dynamics. We extend mixing time analyses for…

We are interested in the Logarithmic Sobolev Inequality for the infinite volume Gibbs measure with no quadratic interactions. We consider unbounded spin systems on the one dimensional Lattice with interactions that go beyond the usual…

The relative log-concavity ordering $\leq_{\mathrm{lc}}$ between probability mass functions (pmf's) on non-negative integers is studied. Given three pmf's $f,g,h$ that satisfy $f\leq_{\mathrm{lc}}g\leq_{\mathrm{lc}}h$, we present a pair of…

In this note, we study the local stability of the bridge family \[ \Phi(T):=\inf_{u\in\mathcal A_T}\|\nabla u\|_{L^2(\mathbb R^n_+)}, \qquad T>0,\quad n\ge3, \] where \[ \mathcal A_T := \Bigl\{ u\in \dot H^1(\mathbb R^n_+):…

Smoothness of the subdiagonals of the Cholesky factor of large covariance matrices is closely related to the degrees of nonstationarity of autoregressive models for time series and longitudinal data. Heuristically, one expects for a nearly…

In 2017, Bo'az Klartag obtained a new result in differential geometry on the existence of affine hemisphere of elliptic type. In his approach, a surface is associated with every a convex function $\Phi$ : R^n $\rightarrow$ (0, +$\infty$)…

In the nice recent work [48], S. Wang established uniform log-Sobolev inequalities for mean field particles when the energy is flat convex. In this note we comment how to extend his proof to some semi-convex energies provided the curvature…

In this paper, we show a weighted Hardy inequality in a limiting case for functions in weighted Sobolev spaces with respect to an invariant measure. We also prove that the constant in the left-hand side of the inequality is optimal. As…

Building on the inequalities for homogeneous tetrahedral polynomials in independent Gaussian variables due to R. Lata{\l}a we provide a concentration inequality for non-necessarily Lipschitz functions $f\colon \R^n \to \R$ with bounded…

In this paper, we prove a self-improvement result for $(\theta,p)$-fractional Hardy inequalities, in both the exponent $1<p<\infty$ and the regularity parameter $0<\theta<1$, for bounded domains in doubling metric measure spaces. The key…

In the paper we establish an optimal logarithmic Sobolev inequality for complete, non-compact, properly embedded self-shrinkers in the Euclidean space, which generalizes a recent result of Brendle \cite{Brendle22} for closed self-shrinkers.…

We investigate geometric and functional inequalities for the class of log-concave probability sequences. We prove dilation inequalities for log-concave probability measures on the integers. A functional analogue of this geometric inequality…
