Generalization of an Inequality by Talagrand and Links with the Logarithmic Sobolev Inequality

TLDR
In this paper, it was shown that transport inequalities, similar to the one derived by M. Talagrand (1996, Geom. Funct. Anal. 6, 587-600) for the Gaussian measure, are implied by logarithmic Sobolev inequalities.

Robin Heat Semigroup and HWI Inequality on Manifolds with Boundary

Feng-Yu Wang
- 20 Aug 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a probabilistic formula for the semigroup generated by the reflecting diffusion process on a complete connected Riemannian manifold with boundary and its local time on the boundary is presented, where Hsu's gradient estimate and Bismut's derivative formula are established on a class of noncompact manifolds with boundary.

The two-scale approach to hydrodynamic limits for non-reversible dynamics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors generalize Grunewald's method to a family of non-reversible dynamics and obtain quantitative rates of convergence to the hydrodynamic limit for a weakly asymmetric version of the Ginzburg-Landau model endowed with Kawasaki dynamics.

Transport proofs of some discrete variants of the Prékopa-Leindler inequality

TL;DR: In this paper, a transport proof of a discrete version of the displacement convexity of entropy on integers (Z) was given, and two discrete forms of the Prekopa-Leindler Inequality were obtained.

Remark on the stability of Log-Sobolev inequality for Gaussian measure

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors bound the deficit in the logarithmic Sobolev Inequality and in the Talagrand transport-entropy Inequality for the Gaussian measure, in any dimension, by mean of a distance introduced by Bucur and Fragal.

Problemi di ottimizzazione in teoria del trasporto di massa

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the relation between the teoria of trasporto di massa and the problem of ottimizzazione di forma, in which a data distribuzione of massa puo essere trasported in una configurazione diversa, ugualmente assegnata, minimizzando un funzionale that rappresenta the cost of the trasports.

Polar Factorization and Monotone Rearrangement of Vector-Valued Functions

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that for every vector-valued function u Lp(X, p; Rd) there is a unique polar factorization u = V$.s, where $ is a convex function defined on R and s is a measure-preserving mapping from (x, p) into (Q, I. I), provided that u is nondegenerate.

The geometry of dissipative evolution equations: the porous medium equation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the porous medium equation has a gradient flow structure which is both physically and mathematically natural, and they use the intuition and the calculus of Riemannian geometry to quantify this asymptotic behavior.

Topological methods in hydrodynamics

TL;DR: A group theoretical approach to hydrodynamics is proposed in this article, where the authors consider the hydrodynamic geometry of diffeomorphism groups and the principle of least action implies that the motion of a fluid is described by geodesics on the group in the right-invariant Riemannian metric given by the kinetic energy.
