In this paper, we consider Poincaré inequalities for non-euclidean metrics on ℝd. These inequalities enable us to derive precise dimension free concentration inequalities for product measures. This technique is appropriate for a large scope of concentration rate: between exponential and gaussian and beyond. We give equivalent functional forms of these Poincaré type inequalities in terms of transportation-cost inequalities and inf-convolution inequalities. Workable sufficient conditions are given...
Equivalence of the spectral gap, exponential integrability of hitting times and Lyapunov conditions is well known. We give here the correspondence (with quantitative results) for reversible diffusion processes. As a consequence, we generalize results of Bobkov in the one dimensional case on the value of the Poincaré constant for log-concave measures to superlinear potentials. Finally, we study various functional inequalities under different hitting times integrability conditions (polynomial,…)....
Our understanding of the interplay between Poincaré inequalities, Sobolev inequalities and the geometry of the underlying space has changed considerably in recent years. These changes have simultaneously provided new insights into the classical theory and allowed much of that theory to be extended to a wide variety of different settings. This paper reviews some of these new results and techniques and concludes with an example on the preservation of Sobolev spaces by the maximal function.[Proceedings...
Using an inverse system of metric graphs as in [3], we provide a simple example of a metric space X that admits Poincaré inequalities for a continuum of mutually singular measures.
