We establish a discrete analog of the R\'enyi entropy comparison due to Bobkov and Madiman. For log-concave variables on the integers, the min entropy is within log e of the usual Shannon entropy. Additionally we investigate the entropic…
We consider a quantum generalization of the classical heat equation, and study contractivity properties of its associated semigroup. We prove a Nash inequality and a logarithmic Sobolev inequality. The former leads to an ultracontractivity…
We prove that synthetic lower Ricci bounds for metric measure spaces -- both in the sense of Bakry-\'Emery and in the sense of Lott-Sturm-Villani -- can be characterized by various functional inequalities including local Poincar\'e…
We consider several local versions of the doubling condition and Poincar\'e inequalities on metric spaces. Our first result is that in proper connected spaces, the weakest local assumptions self-improve to semilocal ones, i.e. holding…
We find the weak rate of convergence of the spatially semidiscrete finite element approximation of the nonlinear stochastic heat equation. Both multiplicative and additive noise is considered under different assumptions. This extends an…
We study the possibility of a gradual improvement as time progresses of the regularity of solutions to evolution problems of parabolic type driven by L\'evy-type operators, not necessarily translation invariant. In the course of our…
We prove a new inequality which improves on the classical Hardy inequality in the sense that a nonlinear integral quantity with super-quadratic growth, which is computed with respect to an inverse square weight, is controlled by the energy.…
We investigate the existence of weak solutions to a certain system of partial differential equations, modelling the behaviour of a compressible non-Newtonian fluid for small Reynolds number. We construct the weak solutions despite the lack…
We develop a new framework for establishing approximate factorization of entropy on arbitrary probability spaces, using a geometric notion known as non-negative sectional curvature. The resulting estimates are equivalent to entropy…
In this article, we introduce and study capacities related to nonlocal Sobolev spaces, with focus on spaces corresponding to zero-order nonlocal operators. In particular, we prove Hardy-type inequalities to obtain Sobolev embeddings and use…
In this paper we prove the existence of a weak solution to a doubly nonlinear parabolic fractional $p$-Laplacian equation, which has general doubly non-linearlity including not only the Sobolev subcritical/critical/supercritical cases but…
A set of functional inequalities - called Nash inequalities - are introduced and analyzed in the context of quantum Markov process mixing. The basic theory of Nash inequalities is extended to the setting of non-commutative Lp spaces, where…
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…
Probability measures satisfying a Poincar{\'e} inequality are known to enjoy a dimension free concentration inequality with exponential rate. A celebrated result of Bobkov and Ledoux shows that a Poincar{\'e} inequality automatically…
In this short paper we generalize the classical inequality between the norms in Lebesgue spaces of the functions and its derivatives, which in the multidimensional case are called Sobolev's inequalities, on the many popular classes pairs of…
In this paper, we prove trace-type Poincar\'e and Sobolev inequalities for the space of functions of bounded $\mathbb{A}$-Variation
In this paper, we uncover a novel connection between the Fenchel-Willmore inequality and a new logarithmic Sobolev inequality for mean-convex submanifolds immersed in non-negatively curved manifolds with Euclidean volume growth. Building on…
We establish a Sobolev-type inequality in Lorentz spaces for $\mathcal{L}$-superharmonic functions \[ \|u\|_{L^{\frac{nq}{n-\alpha q},t}(\mathbb{R}^n)} \leq c \left\| \frac{u(x) - u(y)}{|x-y|^{\frac{n}{q}+\alpha}}…
In this paper, weakly homogeneous generalized functions in the special Colombeau algebras are determined up to equality in the sense of generalized distributions. This yields characterizations that are formally similar to distribution…
By using a general version of curvature condition, derivative inequalities are established for a large class of subelliptic diffusion semigroups. As applications, the Harnack/cost-entropy/cost-variance inequalities for the diffusion…
