The de cit in the logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the Gaussian measure is considered and estimated by means of transport and information-theoretic distances.
We settle the problem of finding the sharp constant in the log Sobolev inequality on the $n$-cycle for all $n\ge 4$, by showing that it is equal to half of the spectral gap. We deduce this result from an optimal cubic Sobolev inequality.
The Brunn-Minkowski and Pr\'{e}kopa-Leindler inequalities admit a variety of proofs that are inspired by convexity. Nevertheless, the former holds for compact sets and the latter for integrable functions so it seems that convexity has no…
We find extremely general classes of nonsmooth open sets which guarantee Mosco convergence for corresponding Sobolev spaces and the validity of Sobolev inequalities with a uniform constant. An important feature of our results is that the…
In this paper we discuss the natural candidate for the one dimensional free Poincar\'e inequality. Two main strong points sustain this candidacy. One is the random matrix heuristic and the other the relations with the other free functional…
Inspired by the recent results of C. Landim, G. Panizo and H.-T. Yau [LPY] on spectral gap and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for unbounded conservative spin systems, we study uniform bounds in these inequalities for Glauber dynamics of…
We provide a sufficient condition for a measure on the real line to satisfy a modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality, thus extending the criterion of Bobkov and G\"{o}tze. Under mild assumptions the condition is also necessary.…
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…
If one thinks of a Riemannian metric, $g_1$, analogously as the gradient of the corresponding distance function, $d_1$, with respect to a background Riemannian metric, $g_0$, then a natural question arises as to whether a corresponding…
By considering a suitable Besov type norm, we obtain refined Sobolev inequalities on a family of Riemannian manifolds with (possibly exponentially large) ends. The interest is twofold: on one hand, these inequalities are stable by…
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…
We show that the Sobolev embedding is compact on punctured manifolds with conical singularities. On the other hand, we find the Sobolev inequality does not hold on punctured manifolds with Poincar\'{e} like metric, on which one has…
The aim of this paper is to establish various functional inequalities for the convolution of a compactly supported measure and a standard Gaussian distribution on Rd. We especially focus on getting good dependence of the constants on the…
In this short note we show an equivalence between Sobolev type inequalities and so called isocapacitary inequalities in the context of a large class of nonlinear Dirichlet forms, their associated Dirichlet spaces and their associated…
We establish the higher differentiability of solutions to a class of obstacle problems for integral functionals where the convex integrand f satisfies p-growth conditions with respect to the gradient variable. We derive that the higher…
In this paper, we obtain stability results for the $L^{p}$-Poincar\'e inequality for both Lebesgue and Gaussian probability measures (Theorem 3.3 and Theorem 3.13) that involve explicit dependence on the geometry of the domain. As a…
We investigate the interactions of functional rearrangements with Prekopa-Leindler type inequalities. It is shown that that a general class of integral inequalities tighten on rearrangement to "isoperimetric" sets with respect to a relevant…
We prove local $L^p$-Poincar\'e inequalities, $ p\in[1,\infty]$, on quasiconvex sets in infinite graphs endowed with a family of locally doubling measures, and global $L^p$-Poincar\'e inequalities on connected sets for flow measures on…
The fundamental gap is the difference between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues of a Schr\"odinger operator (and the Laplacian, in particular). For horoconvex domains in hyperbolic space, Nguyen, Stancu and Wei conjectured that it is…
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…
