On some conjecture concerning Gaussian measures of dilatations of convex symmetric sets

Stanisław Kwapień, Jerzy Sawa (1993)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The paper deals with the following conjecture: if μ is a centered Gaussian measure on a Banach space F,λ > 1, K ⊂ F is a convex, symmetric, closed set, P ⊂ F is a symmetric strip, i.e. P = {x ∈ F : |x'(x)| ≤ 1} for some x' ∈ F', such that μ(K) = μ(P) then μ(λK) ≥ μ(λP). We prove that the conjecture is true under the additional assumption that K is "sufficiently symmetric" with respect to μ, in particular it is true when K is a ball in Hilbert space. As an application we give estimates...

Shift inequalities of Gaussian type and norms of barycentres

F. Barthe, D. Cordero-Erausquin, M. Fradelizi (2001)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We derive the equivalence of different forms of Gaussian type shift inequalities. This completes previous results by Bobkov. Our argument strongly relies on the Gaussian model for which we give a geometric approach in terms of norms of barycentres. Similar inequalities hold in the discrete setting; they improve the known results on the so-called isodiametral problem for the discrete cube. The study of norms of barycentres for subsets of convex bodies completes the exposition. ...

Geometric influences II: Correlation inequalities and noise sensitivity

Nathan Keller, Elchanan Mossel, Arnab Sen (2014)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

In a recent paper, we presented a new definition of influences in product spaces of continuous distributions, and showed that analogues of the most fundamental results on discrete influences, such as the KKL theorem, hold for the new definition in Gaussian space. In this paper we prove Gaussian analogues of two of the central applications of influences: Talagrand’s lower bound on the correlation of increasing subsets of the discrete cube, and the Benjamini–Kalai–Schramm (BKS) noise sensitivity...

Gaussian measures associated to the higher order conservation laws of the Benjamin-Ono equation

Nikolay Tzvetkov, Nicola Visciglia (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Inspired by the work of Zhidkov on the KdV equation, we perform a construction of weighted Gaussian measures associated to the higher order conservation laws of the Benjamin-Ono equation. The resulting measures are supported by Sobolev spaces of increasing regularity. We also prove a property on the support of these measures leading to the conjecture that they are indeed invariant by the flow of the Benjamin-Ono equation.

Thin-shell concentration for convex measures

Matthieu Fradelizi, Olivier Guédon, Alain Pajor (2014)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We prove that for s < 0, s-concave measures on ℝⁿ exhibit thin-shell concentration similar to the log-concave case. This leads to a Berry-Esseen type estimate for most of their one-dimensional marginal distributions. We also establish sharp reverse Hölder inequalities for s-concave measures.
