It is a well-known fact -- which can be shown by elementary calculus -- that the volume of the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$ decays to zero and simultaneously gets concentrated on the thin shell near the boundary sphere as $n \nearrow…

Consider a measure-preserving transition kernel $T$ on an arbitrary probability space $(\mathbb X,\mathcal cA,\pi)$. In this level of generality, we prove that a one-step hyper-contractivity estimate of the form $\|T\|_{p\to q}\le 1$ with…

We prove the equivalence of the curvature-dimension bounds of Lott-Sturm-Villani (via entropy and optimal transport) and of Bakry--\'Emery (via energy and \Gamma_2$-calculus) in complete generality for infinitesimally Hilbertian metric…

We reformulate entanglement wedge reconstruction in the language of operator-algebra quantum error correction with infinite-dimensional physical and code Hilbert spaces. Von Neumann algebras are used to characterize observables in a…

By using the Jacobi metric of the configuration space, and assuming ergodicity, we calculate the Boltzmann entropy $S$ of a finite-dimensional system around a non-degenerate critical point of its potential energy $V$. We compare $S$ with…

In this paper we consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in the interior of a convex body, i.e., a compact convex set in Euclidean space with interior points. We shall not impose any regularity…

We show that an $n$-dimensional surface whose entropy is close to that of an $n$-dimensional plane is close in Hausdorff distance to some $n$-dimensional plane at every scale. Moreover we show that self-expanders of low entropy converge in…

Consider a Brody hyperbolic foliation by Riemann surfaces with linearizable isolated singularities on a compact complex surface. We show that its hyperbolic entropy is finite. We also estimate the modulus of continuity of the Poincare…

We show that, on an oriented compact surface, two sufficiently $C^2$-close Riemannian metrics with strictly convex boundary, no conjugate points, hyperbolic trapped set for their geodesic flows, and same marked boundary distance, are…

We show the existence and uniqueness of the maximal entropy probability measure for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms which are semi-conjugate to nonuniformly expanding maps. Using the theory of projective metric on cones we then prove…

If $K$ and $L$ are mutually dual closed convex cones in a Hilbert space with the metric projections onto them denoted by $P_K$ and $P_L$ respectively, then the following two assertions are equivalent: (i) $P_K$ is isotone with respect to…

After recalling definition, monotonicity, concavity, and continuity of a channel's entropy with respect to a state (finite dimensional cases only), I introduce the roof property, a convex analytic tool, and show its use in treating an…

We show vanishing results about the infimum of the topological entropy of the geodesic flow of homogeneous smooth four manifolds. We prove that any closed oriented geometric four manifold has zero minimal entropy if and only if it has zero…

This paper gives a self-contained introduction to the Hilbert projective metric $\mathcal{H}$ and its fundamental properties, with a particular focus on the space of probability measures. We start by defining the Hilbert pseudo-metric on…

We introduce a notion of a point-wise entropy of measures (i.e local entropy) called neutralized local entropy, and compare it with the Brin-Katok local entropy. We show that the neutralized local entropy coincides with Brin-Katok local…

We give a generalization to convex co-compact semigroups of a beautiful theorem of Patterson-Sullivan, telling that the critical exponent (that is the exponential growth rate) equals the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set (that is the…

We study the existence of Riemannian metrics with zero topological entropy on a closed manifold M with infinite fundamental group. We show that such a metric does not exist if there is a finite simply connected CW complex which maps to M in…

Labourie and the author independently showed that a convex real projective structure on an oriented surface of genus at least 2 is equivalent to a conformal structure plus a holomorphic cubic differential U. We analyze the behavior of the…

We consider the attractor $\Lambda$ of a piecewise contracting map $f$ defined on a compact interval. If $f$ is injective, we show that it is possible to estimate the topological entropy of $f$ (according to Bowen's formula) and the…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded closed convex set in ${\mathbb R}^d$ with non-empty interior, and let ${\cal C}_r(\Omega)$ be the class of convex functions on $\Omega$ with $L^r$-norm bounded by $1$. We obtain sharp estimates of the…
