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.

Modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for canonical ensembles

TL;DR: In this article, the modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for canonical ensembles with superquadratic single-site potential were shown to converge in Wasserstein distance W p for Kawasaki dynamics on the Ginzburg−Landau's model.

Transportation Cost Inequality on Path Spaces with Uniform Distance

TL;DR: In this paper, a class of reversible infinite dimensional diffusion processes on Riemnnian manifolds was constructed from a sequence of independent Wright-Fisher diffusion processes, and the transportation-cost inequality with respect to the uniform distance was established.

A Dual Formula for the Noncommutative Transport Distance

TL;DR: In this article , a duality formula that can be understood as a quantum version of the dual Benamou-Brenier formulation of the Wasserstein distance in terms of subsolutions of a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellmann equation is presented.

Sharp High-dimensional Central Limit Theorems for Log-concave Distributions

Xiao Fang, +1 more
TL;DR: A new Gaussian coupling inequality is developed that gives almost dimension-free bounds for projected versions of p -Wasserstein distance for every p > 2 and a Cram´er type moderate deviation result for this normal approximation error is given.

Nesterov smoothing for sampling without smoothness

TL;DR: A novel sampling algorithm is proposed for a class of non-smooth potentials by approximating them by smooth potentials using a technique that is akin to Nesterov smoothing, and the accuracy of the algorithm is guaranteed.

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.
