In this note, we characterize the equality case of the sharp $L^2$-Euclidean logarithmic Sobolev inequality with monomial weights, exploiting the idea by Bobkov and Ledoux \cite{Bob}. Our approach is new even in the unweighted case. Also,…

We consider the inhomogeneous biharmonic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $$ i u_t +\Delta^2 u+\lambda|x|^{-b}|u|^\alpha u = 0, $$ where $\lambda=\pm 1$ and $\alpha$, $b>0$. In the subctritical case, we improve the global well-posedness…
We show that there are no general stability results for the logarithmic Sobolev inequality in terms of the Wasserstein distances and $L^{p}(d\gamma)$ distance for $p>1$. To this end, we construct a sequence of centered probability measures…
We study a family of fractional integral operator defined on an homogeneous space with a "rectangle doubling" measure. As a result, we give an extension of the classical Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev theorem to a multi-parameter setting.
Using isoperimetry and symmetrization we provide a unified framework to study the classical and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities. In particular, we obtain new Gaussian symmetrization inequalities and connect them with logarithmic Sobolev…
A nonlinear fourth-order parabolic equation in one space dimension with periodic boundary conditions is studied. This equation arises in the context of fluctuations of a stationary nonequilibrium interface and in the modeling of quantum…
A discussion of polyhomogeneity (asymptotic expansions in terms of $1/r$ and $\ln r$) for zero-rest-mass fields and gravity and its relation with the Newman-Penrose (NP) constants is given. It is shown that for spin-$s$ zero-rest-mass…
We give here a simple proof of weighted logarithmic Sobolev inequality, for example for Cauchy type measures, with optimal weight, sharpening results of Bobkov-Ledoux. Some consequences are also discussed.
In this paper, we present recent stability results with explicit and dimensionally sharp constants and optimal norms for the Sobolev inequality and for the Gaussian logarithmic Sobolev inequality obtained by the authors in [24]. The…
We study the hydrodynamic behaviour of the symmetric zero-range process on the finite interval $\{1, \ldots, N-1\}$ in contact with slow reservoirs at the boundary. Particles are injected and removed at sites $1$ and $N-1$ at rates that…
We show that the hereditary discrepancy of homogeneous arithmetic progressions is lower bounded by $n^{1/O(\log \log n)}$. This bound is tight up to the constant in the exponent. Our lower bound goes via proving an exponential lower bound…
We consider the optimization problem corresponding to the sharp constant in a conformally invariant Sobolev inequality on the $n$-sphere involving an operator of order $2s> n$. In this case the Sobolev exponent is negative. Our results…
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 present a logarithmic Sobolev inequality adapted to a log-concave measure. Assume that $\Phi$ is a symmetric convex function on $\dR$ satisfying $(1+\e)\Phi(x)\leq {x}\Phi'(x)\leq(2-\e)\Phi(x)$ for $x\geq0$ large enough and with…
We develop a theory of Sobolev orthogonal polynomials on the Sierpi\'nski gasket ($SG$). These orthogonal polynomials arise through the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalisation process applied on the set of monomials on $SG$ using several notions of…
We consider a generic modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality (mLSI) of the form $\mathrm{Ent}_{\mu}(e^f) \le \tfrac{\rho}{2} \mathbb{E}_\mu e^f \Gamma(f)^2$ for some difference operator $\Gamma$, and show how it implies two-level…
The present paper is devoted to a theory of profile decomposition for bounded sequences in \emph{homogeneous} Sobolev spaces, and it enables us to analyze the lack of compactness of bounded sequences. For every bounded sequence in…
We focus on the log-Sobolev inequality for spin systems on the lattice with interactions of higher order than quadratic. We show that if the one-dimensional single-site measure with boundaries satisfies the log-Sobolev inequality uniformly…
We study $L^p$-Sobolev improving for averaging operators $A_{\gamma}$ given by convolution with a compactly supported smooth density $\mu_{\gamma}$ on a non-degenerate curve. In particular, in 4 dimensions we show that $A_{\gamma}$ maps…
