AbstractFree analogues of the logarithmic Sobolev inequality compare the relative free Fisher information with the relative free entropy. In the present paper such an inequality is obtained for measures on the circle. The method is based on a random matrix approximation procedure, and a large deviation result concerning the eigenvalue distribution of special unitary matrices is applied and discussed.

In this paper, we shall introduce the free Fisher information distance which is inspired by the estimation-theoretic representation of the free relative entropy investigated by Verdú. We shall see the free analogue of the logarithmic Sobolev inequality with respect to a centered semicircle law and also the semicircular approximation of the free Poisson law.

A non-uniform (skewed) mixture of probability density functions occurs in various disciplines. One needs a measure of similarity to the respective constituents and its bounds. We introduce a skewed Jensen–Fisher divergence based on relative Fisher information, and provide some bounds in terms of the skewed Jensen–Shannon divergence and of the variational distance. The defined measure coincides with the definition from the skewed Jensen–Shannon divergence via the de Bruijn identity. Our results follow from applying the logarithmic Sobolev inequality and Poincaré inequality.

In this paper, we shall give the representation of a semicircular perturbation of the free Fisher information [Formula: see text] by the mean of the conditional variance [Formula: see text], where S is a standard semicircular element freely independent of X, and ε > 0. Using this representation, we will give alternative proofs of the free Fisher information inequality, in which the free analogue of Stam's inequality can be obtained as a special case, and of the free entropy power inequality in an infinitesimal approach to the free entropy.

The free analogue of the transportation cost inequality so far obtained for measures is extended to the noncommutative setting. Our free transportation cost inequality is for tracial distributions of noncommutative self-adjoint (also unitary) multi-variables in the framework of tracial C*-probability spaces, and it tells that the Wasserstein distance is dominated by the square root of the relative free entropy with respect to a potential of additive type (corresponding to the free case) with some convexity condition. The proof is based on random matrix approximation procedure.

AbstractProbability measures satisfying a Poincaré inequality are known to enjoy a dimension-free concentration inequality with exponential rate. A celebrated result of Bobkov and Ledoux shows that a Poincaré inequality automatically implies a modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality. As a consequence the Poincaré inequality ensures a stronger dimension-free concentration property, known as two-level concentration. We show that a similar phenomenon occurs for the Latała–Oleszkiewicz inequalities, which were devised to uncover dimension-free concentration with rate between exponential and Gaussian. Motivated by the search for counterexamples to related questions, we also develop analytic techniques to study functional inequalities for probability measures on the line with wild potentials.

Abstract In this paper, we prove the equivalence between logarithmic Sobolev inequality and hypercontractivity of a class of quantum Markov semigroup and its associated Dirichlet form based on a probability gage space.
