Sharp Rogers--Shephard Inequalities for Rényi Entropy

Bang-Xian Han, Guoqing Zhan, Chiyu Zhou +1

We establish sharp weighted Rogers--Shephard inequalities for Rényi differential entropy. For independent copies of a log-concave random vector in , we prove $h_p(aX-b…

Stability of optimal transport on sub-Riemannian manifolds

Bang-Xian Han, Zhuo-Nan Zhu

We study the stability of optimal transport for the squared Carnot--Carathéodory distance. We prove the sharp stability estimate for optimal transport maps on complete…

Stability of Kantorovich potentials via heat kernel regularization

Bang-Xian Han, Zhuo-Nan Zhu

This survey presents heat kernel regularization as a method for quantitative stability of Kantorovich potentials for the quadratic transport cost. We give a complete new heat kerne…

On the Geometry of Wasserstein Barycenter II: Riemannian Rigidity, Essential Non-Branching, and Finsler Models

Bang-Xian Han, Deng-Yu Liu

Wasserstein barycenters provide a notion of weighted mean for probability measures on a metric space. We prove that the barycenter curvature-dimension condition is…

Sharp Poincaré interpolation along Wasserstein geodesics

Bang-Xian Han, Zhuo-Nan Zhu

Let and be - and -strongly log-concave probability measures on , and let be their quadratic Wasserstein geodesic. We prove the sharp…

Contracting Transport Maps on Riemannian Manifolds

Shrey Aryan, Bang-Xian Han, Zhuo-Nan Zhu

We use inverse mean curvature flow to construct bi-Lipschitz maps that preserve normalized volume and decrease distances. These maps send a round sphere onto any smooth closed stri…

Lipschitz regularity of harmonic map heat flows from spaces into spaces

Bang-Xian Han, Hui-Chun Zhang, Xi-Ping Zhu

We prove positive-time regularity for harmonic map heat flows from finite-dimensional spaces into complete spaces, without assuming that eithe…

Heat Codimension and Scalar Curvature

Bang-Xian Han

Motivated by recent proofs of Gromov's codimension-two volume-growth conjecture, we propose a synthetic theory for scalar lower bound on metric measure Dirichlet spaces.

Weak Quadruple Comparison and Structure Theory Beyond Alexandrov Geometry

Bang-Xian Han, Liming Yin

We introduce a new four-point comparison principle, called the -weak quadruple condition, for non-Riemannian spaces with synthetic non-negative curvature. This con…

Wasserstein Barycenter Convexity Detects Hilbertian Geometry

Bang-Xian Han, Deng-Yu Liu

We prove that convexity of the Boltzmann entropy at Wasserstein barycenters is strong enough to distinguish Hilbert spaces from general Banach spaces. Thus Wasserstein barycenters…

Two-mode stability for multi-marginal optimal transport maps

Bang-Xian Han, Zhuo-Nan Zhu

We establish a two-mode stability theory for Monge solutions of the multi-marginal optimal transport problem with barycentric quadratic cost. The associated tuple of maps splits in…

Stability of optimal transport on metric measure spaces

Bang-Xian Han, Zhuo-Nan Zhu

We prove a quantitative stability of Kantorovich potentials on metric measure spaces with lower Ricci curvature bound, thereby confirming a recent conjecture of Kitagawa, Letrouit…
