Variations and extensions of the Gaussian concentration inequality, Part II

Daniel J. Fresen

Published 2022-03-23Version 1

Pisier's version of the Gaussian concentration inequality is transformed and used to prove deviation inequalities for locally Lipschitz functions with respect to heavy tailed product measures on Euclidean space. The approach is, in our opinion, more direct than much of the modern theory of concentration of measure (i.e. Poincar\'{e} and log-Sobolev inequalities, estimating moments etc.).

Comments: 34 pages. The original paper, which was uploaded as a separate submission (arXiv:1812.10938), has been split into two papers, Part I and Part II; this is Part II
