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 show weak convergence of quantile and expectile processes to Gaussian limit processes in the space of bounded functions endowed with an appropriate semimetric which is based on the concepts of epi- and hypo convergence as introduced in…

We consider a new functional inequality controlling the rate of relative entropy decay for random walks, the interchange process and more general block-type dynamics for permutations. The inequality lies between the classical logarithmic…

We show that for weakly dependent random variables the relative entropy functional satisfies an approximate version of the standard tensorization property which holds in the independent case. As a corollary we obtain a family of…

In various analytical contexts, it is proved that a weak Sobolev inequality implies a doubling property for the underlying measure.

In this paper we obtain logarithmic Hardy and Rellich inequalities on general Lie groups. In the case of graded groups, we also show their refinements using the homogeneous Sobolev norms. In fact, we derive a family of weighted logarithmic…

We prove logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and concentration results for convex functions and a class of product random vectors. The results are used to derive tail and moment inequalities for chaos variables (in spirit of Talagrand and…

We prove a Poincar\'e-Sobolev type inequality on compact Riemannian manifolds where the deviation of a function from a biased average, defined using a density, is controlled by the unweighted Lebesgue norm of its gradient. Unlike classical…

We use the distances introduced in a previous joint paper to exhibit the gradient flow structure of some drift-diffusion equations for a wide class of entropy functionals. Functional inequalities obtained by the comparison of the entropy…

The aim of this work is to prove a Harnack inequality and the H\"older continuity for weak solutions to the Kolmogorov equation $\mathscr{L} u = f$ with measurable coefficients, integrable lower order terms and nonzero source term. We…

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the isoperimetric inequality for symmetric log-convex probability measures on the line. Using geometric arguments we first re-prove that extremal sets in the isoperimetric inequality are intervals or…

We prove a new vectorial functional inequality of Poincar\'{e}-Beckner type. The inequality may be interpreted as an entropy-entropy production one for a gradient flow in the metric space of Radon measures. The proof uses subtle analysis of…

In this paper we firstly derive the weak elliptic Harnack inequality from the generalized capacity condition, the tail estimate of jump measure and the Poincar\'{e} inequality, for any regular Dirichlet form without killing part on a…

In this paper, We establish the weighted Poincar\'{e} inequalities and Log-Sobolev inequalities for Cauchy distributions with optimal weight functions.

Interpolation inequalities in Triebel-Lizorkin-Lorentz spaces and Besov-Lorentz spaces are studied for both inhomogeneous and homogeneous cases. First we establish interpolation inequalities under quite general assumptions on the parameters…

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

In this paper, we review recent results on stability and instability in logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, with a particular emphasis on strong norms. We consider several versions of these inequalities on the Euclidean space, for the…

The purpose of this short article is to prove some potential estimates that naturally arise in the study of subelliptic Sobolev inequalites for functions. This will allow us to prove a local subelliptic Sobolev inequality with the optimal…

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 $\dR^n$.…

On a stratified Lie group $G$ equipped with hypoelliptic heat kernel measure, we study the behavior of the dilation semigroup on $L^p$ spaces of log-subharmonic functions. We consider a notion of strong hypercontractivity and a strong…
