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,…

In a doubling metric measure space $(X,\rho,\mu)$ supporting a Poincar\'e inequality, we give a new characterisation of first-order Sobolev spaces by mean oscillations, and extend previous characterisations of constant functions in terms of…

We recall two approaches to recent improvements of the classical Sobolev inequality. The first one follows the point of view of Real Analysis, while the second one relies on tools from Convex Geometry. In this paper we prove a (sharp)…

We derive weighted log-Sobolev inequalities from a class of super Poincar\'e inequalities. As an application, the Talagrand inequality with larger distances are obtained. In particular, on a complete connected Riemannian manifold, we prove…

We obtain new oscillation inequalities in metric spaces in terms of the Peetre $K-$functional and the isoperimetric profile. Applications provided include a detailed study of Fractional Sobolev inequalities and the Morrey-Sobolev embedding…

We prove that in the context of general Markov semigroups Beckner inequalities with constants separated from zero as $p\to 1^+$ are equivalent to the modified log Sobolev inequality (previously only one implication was known to hold in this…

In this paper we are focusing on functional inequalities on compact simple edge spaces. More precisely we address the question whether the classical functional inequalities (Sobolev, Poincar\'e) hold in this setting, and as a by-product of…

A family of sharp $L^p$ Sobolev inequalities is established by averaging the length of $i$-dimensional projections of the gradient of a function. Moreover, it is shown that each of these new inequalities directly implies the classical $L^p$…

We consider the Sobolev norms of the pointwise product of two functions, and estimate from above and below the constants appearing in two related inequalities.

We study coercive inequalities on finite dimensional metric spaces with probability measures which do not have volume doubling property. This class of inequalities includes Poincar\'e and Log-Sobolev inequality. Our main result is proof of…

Let $\M$ be a smooth connected manifold endowed with a smooth measure $\mu$ and a smooth locally subelliptic diffusion operator $L$ which is symmetric with respect to $\mu$. We assume that $L$ satisfies a generalized curvature dimension…

This paper establishes quantitative correlation inequalities between monotone events and structured threshold objects in both the discrete cube and Gaussian space. We prove that for any increasing balanced family, there exists a linear…

We obtain an improved Sobolev inequality in H^s spaces involving Morrey norms. This refinement yields a direct proof of the existence of optimizers and the compactness up to symmetry of optimizing sequences for the usual Sobolev embedding.…

This paper deduces exponential matrix concentration from a Poincar\'e inequality via a short, conceptual argument. Among other examples, this theory applies to matrix-valued functions of a uniformly log-concave random vector. The proof…

A classical inequality, which is known for families of monotone functions, is generalized to a larger class of families of measurable functions. Moreover we characterize all the families of functions for which the equality holds. We apply…

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 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…

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…

We study in details the isoperimetric profile of product probability measures with tails between the exponential and the Gaussian regime. In particular we exhibit many examples where coordinate half-spaces are approximate solutions of the…

We show that Talagrand's transport inequality is equivalent to a restricted logarithmic Sobolev inequality. This result clarifies the links between these two important functional inequalities. As an application, we give the first proof of…
