Small ball probability estimates for log-concave measures
We establish a small ball probability inequality for isotropic log-concave probability measures: there exist absolute constants c1, c2 > 0 such that if X is an isotropic log-concave random vector in R with ψ2 constant bounded by b and if A is a non-zero n × n matrix, then for every ε ∈ (0, c1) and y ∈ R, P (‖Ax− y‖2 6 ε‖A‖HS) 6 ε ` c2 b ‖A‖HS ‖A‖op ́2 , where c1, c2 > 0 are absolute constants.

In the study of concentration properties of isotropic log-concave measures, it is often useful to first ensure that the measure has super-Gaussian marginals. To this end, a standard preprocessing step is to convolve with a Gaussian measure, but this has the disadvantage of destroying small-ball information. We propose an alternative preprocessing step for making the measure seem super-Gaussian,...
متن کاملFunctional Inequalities for Gaussian and Log-Concave Probability Measures
We give three proofs of a functional inequality for the standard Gaussian measure originally due to William Beckner. The first uses the central limit theorem and a tensorial property of the inequality. The second uses the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup, and the third uses the heat semigroup. These latter two proofs yield a more general inequality than the one Beckner originally proved. We then ge...
متن کاملSmall Ball Estimates for Quasi-norms
This note contains two types of small ball estimates for random vectors in finite dimensional spaces equipped with a quasi-norm. In the first part, we obtain bounds for the small ball probability of random vectors under some smoothness assumptions on their density function. In the second part, we obtain Littlewood-Offord type estimates for quasi-norms. This generalizes a result which was previo...
متن کاملLog-level Comparison Principle for Small Ball Probabilities
(if μ is the Lebesgue measure, the index μ will be omitted). The problem is to define the behavior of P{||X||μ ≤ ε} as ε → 0. The study of small deviation problem was initiated by Sytaya [S] and continued by many authors. The history of the problem in 20th century is described in reviews by Lifshits [Lf2] and by Li and Shao [LS]. Latest results can be found in [Lf3]. According to the well-known...
