In this paper we introduce the log entropy functional and establish its monotonicity along the Ricci flow. One consequence of it is the monotonicity of the logarithmic Sobolev constant along the Ricci flow.
Given a three dimensional pseudo-Einstein CR manifold (M,T1,0M,θ), we study the existence of a contact structure conformal to θ for which the logarithmic Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (LHLS) inequality holds. Our approach closely follows \cite{Ok1} in the Riemannian setting. For this purpose, we introduce the notion …

method Using Alexandrov-Bakelman-Pucci (ABP) method to prove the inequality for Euclidean space, then applying this method to non-compact self-shrinkers.
result Optimal logarithmic Sobolev inequality for complete, non-compact, properly embedded self-shrinkers.
In this paper, we systematically study the heat kernel of the Ricci flows induced by Ricci shrinkers. We develop several estimates which are much sharper than their counterparts in general closed Ricci flows. Many classical results, including the optimal Logarithmic Sobolev constant estimate, the Sobolev constant estim…
Through the main example of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup, the Bakry-Emery criterion is presented as a main tool to get functional inequalities as Poincaré or logarithmic Sobolev inequalities. Moreover an alternative method using the optimal mass transportation, is also given to obtain the logarithmic Sobolev inequa…
We prove a sharp logarithmic Sobolev inequality which holds for submanifolds in Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension and codimension. Like the Michael-Simon Sobolev inequality, this inequality includes a term involving the mean curvature.
In this note, we derive a new logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the heat kernel on the Heisenberg group. The proof is inspired from the historical method of Leonard Gross with the Central Limit Theorem for a random walk. Here the non commutative nature of the increments produces a new gradient which naturally involves…
Researchers prove rigidity for log-Sobolev inequality on specific metric spaces.
problem Proving rigidity for the logarithmic Sobolev inequality on metric measure spaces.
method Using a new approach to prove the rigidity result.
result Proved that if equality holds in the log-Sobolev inequality, the space must split into a product of a manifold and the Gaussian shrinking soliton.
In this paper, we prove the concavity of p-entropy power of probability densities solving the p-heat equation on closed Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature. As applications, we give new proofs of Lp-Euclidean Nash inequality and Lp-Euclidean Logarithmic Sobolev inequality, moreover, an improv…
We derive a logarithmic Sobolev inequality along the Ricci flow without any restriction on time, which depends only on the initial metric via rudimentary geometric data, assuming only that a certain first eigenvalue is positive. As a consequence we obtain a uniform Sobolev inequality along the Ricci flow without any re…
In this survey we review Hamilton's entropy and Perelman's entropy, and provide motivations for these concepts. Then we review recent results on the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, the Sobolev inequalities and kappa-noncollapsing estimates along the Ricci flow, including the Ricci flow with surgeries.
For some class of geometric flows, we obtain the (logarithmic) Sobolev inequalities and their equivalence up to different factors directly and also obtain the long time non-collapsing and non-inflated properties, which generalize the results in the case of Ricci flow or List-Ricci flow or harmonic-Ricci flow. As applic…
We investigate the rigidity problem for the logarithmic Sobolev inequality on weighted Riemannian manifolds satisfying Ric∞≥K>0. Assuming equality holds, we show that the 1-dimensional Gaussian space is necessarily split off, similarly to the rigidity results of Cheng--Zhou on the spectral gap …
This note proves sharp affine Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities which are stronger than all known sharp Euclidean Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities and imply the affine Lp−Sobolev inequalities. The logarithmic version of affine Lp−Sobolev inequalities is verified. Moreover, An alternative proof of the affine Mo…
We define the "sum of squares of the wavelengths" of a Riemannian surface (M,g) to be the regularized trace of the inverse of the Laplacian. We normalize by scaling and adding a constant, to obtain a "mass", which is scale invariant and vanishes at the round sphere. This is an anlaog for closed surfaces of the ADM mass…
