Mass Transportation Proofs of Free Functional Inequalities, and Free Poincaré Inequalities
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work is devoted to direct mass transportation proofs of families of functional inequalities in the context of one-dimensional free probability, avoiding random matrix approximation. The inequalities include the free form of the transportation, Log-Sobolev, HWI interpolation and Brunn-Minkowski inequalities for strictly convex potentials. Sharp constants and some extended versions are put forward. The paper also addresses two versions of free Poincaré inequalities and their interpretation in terms of spectral properties of Jacobi operators. The last part establishes the corresponding inequalities for measures on R+ with the reference example of the MarcenkoPastur distribution.

Measure Concentration, Transportation Cost, and Functional Inequalities
— In these lectures, we present a triple description of the concentration of measure phenomenon, geometric (through BrunnMinkoswki inequalities), measure-theoretic (through transportation cost inequalities) and functional (through logarithmic Sobolev inequalities), and investigate the relationships between these various viewpoints. Special emphasis is put on optimal mass transportation and the ...
متن کاملMass transportation methods in functional inequalities and a new family of sharp constrained Sobolev inequalities
In recent decades, developments in the theory of mass transportation have led to proofs of many sharp functional inequalities. We present some of these results, including ones due to F. Maggi and the author, and discuss related open problems. 1 Sobolev inequalities and mass transportation methods Sobolev inequalities are among the most fundamental tools in analysis and geometry. Determining the...
متن کاملFunctional inequalities and uniqueness of the Gibbs measure — from log-Sobolev to Poincaré
In a statistical mechanics model with unbounded spins, we prove uniqueness of the Gibbs measure under various assumptions on finite volume functional inequalities. We follow Royer’s approach ([11]) and obtain uniqueness by showing convergence properties of a Glauber-Langevin dynamics. The result was known when the measures on the box [−n, n] (with free boundary conditions) satisfied the same lo...
متن کاملFluctuations of eigenvalues and second order Poincaré inequalities
Abstract. Linear statistics of eigenvalues in many familiar classes of random matrices are known to obey gaussian central limit theorems. The proofs of such results are usually rather difficult, involving hard computations specific to the model in question. In this article we attempt to formulate a unified technique for deriving such results via relatively soft arguments. In the process, we int...
