Spectral Gap and Logarithmic Sobolev Inequality for Kawasaki and Giauber Dynamics
نویسنده
چکیده
We prove that the spectral gap of the Kawasaki dynamics shrink at the rate of I lL 2 for cubes of size L provided that some mixing conditions are satisfied. We also prove that the logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the Glauber dynamics in standard cubes holds uniformly in the size of the cube if the Dobrushin-Shlosman mixing condition holds for standard cubes.

Modified Logarithmic Sobolev Inequalities in Discrete Settings
Motivated by the rate at which the entropy of an ergodic Markov chain relative to its stationary distribution decays to zero, we study modified versions of logarithmic Sobolev inequalities in the discrete setting of finite Markov chains and graphs. These inequalities turn out to be weaker than the standard log-Sobolev inequality, but stronger than the Poincare’ (spectral gap) inequality. We sho...
متن کاملA Remark on Spectral Gap and Logarithmic Sobolev Inequalities for Conservative Spin Systems
We observe that a class of conditional probability measures for unbounded spin systems with convex interactions satisses Poincar e and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities. For the corresponding conservative dynamics in a box of linear size L we show that the inverse of the spectral gap and the logarithmic Sobolev constant scale as L 2 in any dimension. 2000 MSC: 60K35
متن کاملSpectral Gap, Logarithmic Sobolev Constant, and Geometric Bounds
– We survey recent works on the connection between spectral gap and logarithmic Sobolev constants, and exponential integrability of Lipschitz functions. In particular, tools from measure concentration are used to describe bounds on the diameter of a (compact) Riemannian manifold and of Markov chains in terms of the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian and the logarithmic Sobolev constant. We exami...
متن کاملA two-scale approach to logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and the hydrodynamic limit
We consider the coarse-graining of a lattice system with continuous spin variable. In the first part, two abstract results are established: sufficient conditions for a logarithmic Sobolev inequality with constants independent of the dimension (Theorem 3) and sufficient conditions for convergence to the hydrodynamic limit (Theorem 8). In the second part, we use the abstract results to treat a sp...
متن کاملThe Eyring-Kramers formula for Poincaré and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities
The topic of this thesis is a diffusion process on a potential landscape which is given by a smooth Hamiltonian function in the regime of small noise. The work provides a new proof of the Eyring-Kramers formula for the Poincaré inequality of the associated generator of the diffusion. The Poincaré inequality characterizes the spectral gap of the generator and establishes the exponential rate of ...
