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.

Transport inequalities for log-concave measures, quantitative forms and applications

TL;DR: In this article, simple techniques based on monotone mass transport that allow to obtain transport-type inequalities for any log-concave probability measure, and for more general measures as well, are discussed.

The W-entropy formula for the Witten Laplacian on manifolds with time dependent metrics and potentials

TL;DR: In this paper, the W-entropy formula for the Witten Laplacian via warped product on Riemannian manifolds has been shown to be equivalent to the optimal logarithmic Sobolev constant on compact manifolds equipped with the K-super m-dimensional Bakry Emery Ricci flow.

Asymptotic behavior for doubly degenerate parabolic equations

TL;DR: In this paper, Agueh et al. used mass transportation inequalities to study the asymptotic behavior for a class of doubly degenerate parabolic equations of the form (1) ∂ρ ∂t = div ρ∇c ∗ ∇ F′(ρ)+V in (0,∞)×Ω, and ρ(t=0)=ρ 0 in {0}×ε, where Ω is R n, or a bounded domain of R n in which case ρ ∇c∗

Mean-Field Langevin Dynamics : Exponential Convergence and Annealing

TL;DR: This work studies the annealed dynamics, and shows that for a noise decaying at a logarithmic rate, the dynamics converges in value to the global minimizer of the unregularized objective function.

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.
