The paper studies optimal transport in linear quadratic systems and derives interpolation inequalities.

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…

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

In the present paper, we prove that a lower bound on the $1$-weighted Ricci curvature is equivalent to a convexity of entropies on the Wasserstein space. Based on such characterization, we provide some interpolation inequalities such as the Pr'ekopa-Leindler inequality, the Borel-Branscamp-Lieb inequality, and the Brun…

We prove several differential Harnack inequalities for positive solutions to nonlinear backward heat equations with different potentials coupled with the Ricci flow. We also derive an interpolated Harnack inequality for the nonlinear heat equation under the $\varepsilon$-Ricci flow on a closed surface. These new Harnac…

On any complete Riemannian manifold $M$ and for all $p\in [2,\infty)$, we prove a family of second order $L^{p}$-interpolation inequalities that arise from the following simple $L^{p}$-estimate valid for every $u \in C^{\infty}(M)$: $\|\nabla u\|_{p}^p \leq \|u Δ_{p} u\|_1\in [0,\infty],$ where $Δ_p$ denotes the $p…

This note is devoted to optimal spectral estimates for Schrödinger operators on compact connected Riemannian manifolds without boundary. These estimates are based on the use of appropriate interpolation inequalities and on some recent rigidity results for nonlinear elliptic equations on those manifolds.

We refine and generalize several interpolation inequalities bounding the $L^p$ norm of a probability density with respect to the reference measure $μ$ by its Sobolev norm and the Kantorovich distance to $μ$ on a smooth weighted Riemannian manifold satisfying $CD(0, \infty)$ condition.

Study bounds for Brownian motion on manifolds with sticky boundary conditions.

In this paper, we study the CR Yamabe flow with zero CR Yamabe invariant. We use the CR Poincaré inequality and a Gagliardo-Nirenberg type interpolation inequality to show that this flow has long time solution and the solution converges to a contact form with flat pseudo-Hermitian scalar curvature exponentially.

The study shows that close hypersurfaces have uniformly bounded inequalities.

Adding inequality constraints (e.g. boundedness, monotonicity, convexity) into Gaussian processes (GPs) can lead to more realistic stochastic emulators. Due to the truncated Gaussianity of the posterior, its distribution has to be approximated. In this work, we consider Monte Carlo (MC) and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MC…

We establish a one-parameter family of Harnack inequalities connecting the constrained trace Li-Yau differential Harnack inequality for a nonlinear parabolic equation to the constrained trace Chow-Hamilton Harnack inequality for this nonlinear equation with respect to evolving metrics related to Ricci flow on a 2-dimen…

We show that two smooth nearby Riemannian metrics can be glued interpolating their scalar curvature. The resulting smooth metric is the same as the starting ones outside the gluing region and has scalar curvature interpolating between the original ones. One can then glue metrics while maintaining inequalities satisfied…

We prove constrained trace, matrix and constrained matrix Harnack inequalities for the nonlinear heat equation $ω_t=Δω+aω\ln ω$ on closed manifolds. We also derive a new interpolated Harnack inequality for the equation $ω_t=Δω-ω\lnω+\varepsilon Rω$ on closed surfaces under the $\varepsilon$-Ricci flow. Finally we prove…

New method proves inequalities for self-shrinkers using perturbation.

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 …

We construct geodesics in the Wasserstein space of probability measure along which all the measures have an upper bound on their density that is determined by the densities of the endpoints of the geodesic. Using these geodesics we show that a local Poincaré inequality and the measure contraction property follow from t…

New method for handling multi-dimensional singular controls with jump costs in mean-field problems.

We prove comparison theorems for the sub-Riemannian distortion coefficients appearing in interpolation inequalities. These results, which are equivalent to a sub-Laplacian comparison theorem for the sub-Riemannian distance, are obtained by introducing a suitable notion of sub-Riemannian Bakry-Émery curvature. The model…

We describe and partially solve a natural Yamabe-type problem on smooth metric measure spaces which interpolates between the Yamabe problem and the problem of finding minimizers for Perelman's $ν$-entropy. This problem reduces in all dimensions on Euclidean space to the characterization of the minimizers of the family …
