The paper discusses rigidity results for inequalities on weighted Riemannian manifolds.

In this paper, we derive from the supersymmetry of the Witten Laplacian Brascamp-Lieb's type inequalities for general differential forms on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary. In addition to the supersymmetry, our results essentially follow from suitable decompositions of the quadratic forms associated with the…

The paper explores inequalities on weighted Riemannian manifolds with boundary.

It is known that by dualizing the Bochner-Lichnerowicz-Weitzenböck formula, one obtains Poincaré-type inequalities on Riemannian manifolds equipped with a density, which satisfy the Bakry-Émery Curvature-Dimension condition (combining a lower bound on its generalized Ricci curvature and an upper bound on its generalize…

The paper explores a generalized notion of transversality in harmonic analysis.

Standard bubbles and partitions are stable in various model spaces.

Given a probability measure $μ$ supported on a convex subset $Ω$ of Euclidean space $(\mathbb{R}^d,g_0)$, we are interested in obtaining Poincaré and log-Sobolev type inequalities on $(Ω,g_0,μ)$. To this end, we change the metric $g_0$ to a more general Riemannian one $g$, adapted in a certain sense to $μ$, and perform…

By adapting methods of \cite{AC} we prove a sharp estimate on the expansion modulus of the gradient of the log of the parabolic kernel to the Schördinger operator with convex potential, which improves an earlier work of Brascamp-Lieb. We also include alternate proofs to the improved log-concavity estimate, and to the f…

In this article, a proof of the interpolation inequality along geodesics in $p$-Wasserstein spaces is given. This interpolation inequality was the main ingredient to prove the Borel-Brascamp-Lieb inequality for general Riemannian and Finsler manifolds and led Lott-Villani and Sturm to define an abstract Ricci curvature…

Information concentration of probability measures have important implications in learning theory. Recently, it is discovered that the information content of a log-concave distribution concentrates around their differential entropy, albeit with an unpleasant dependence on the ambient dimension. In this work, we prove th…

The paper proves inequalities for optimal transport on sub-Finslerian manifolds.

We prove that ideal sub-Riemannian manifolds (i.e., admitting no non-trivial abnormal minimizers) support interpolation inequalities for optimal transport. A key role is played by sub-Riemannian Jacobi fields and distortion coefficients, whose properties are remarkably different with respect to the Riemannian case. As …

The paper proves inequalities for hyperbolic sets and curves.

Generalization in nonlinear least squares can be studied via algorithmic stability and effective dimension.

Maximum entropy distributions with discrete support in $m$ dimensions arise in machine learning, statistics, information theory, and theoretical computer science. While structural and computational properties of max-entropy distributions have been extensively studied, basic questions such as: Do max-entropy distributio…

Convex optimization is a vibrant and successful area due to the existence of a variety of efficient algorithms that leverage the rich structure provided by convexity. Convexity of a smooth set or a function in a Euclidean space is defined by how it interacts with the standard differential structure in this space -- the…

We develop an efficient algorithm to find confidence ellipsoids with volume guarantees in high dimensions.

The paper proposes a conjecture for a symmetric version of Ehrhard's inequality.
