Various applications of these results are investigated, among them the famous variational formula of the spectral gap derived by Chen and Wang [15] together with a new criterion ensuring that the logarithmic Sobolev inequality holds. We complete this work by revisiting some classical examples, for which new estimates on the optimal constants are derived.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-04-12T10:29:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "one-dimensional diffusions", "intertwining relations", "functional inequalities", "application", "logarithmic sobolev inequality holds" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1304.3595B" } } }
