Abstract
We present a class of modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality interpolating between Poincaré and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities suitable for measures of the type exp −x α or exp −x α log β 2+x α ∈12 and β ∈ ℝ which lead to new concentration inequalities These modified inequalities share common properties with usual logarithmic Sobolev inequalities as tensorisation or perturbation and imply as well Poincaré inequality We also study the link between these new modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and transportation inequalities
