F. Baudoin : Functional Inequalities: Probability and geometry in interaction

The talk will be an introduction to the world of functional inequalities with a geometric content. I will in particular focus on the family of log-Sobolev and Sobolev inequalities and show how these inequalities are closely connected to the geometry of the ambient space. I will mainly follow the Bakry-Ledoux approach to these inequalities which is is based on the notion of intrinsic curvature of a diffusion operator and at the end of the presentation will explain how these ideas have recently been used in sub-Riemannian geometry.
