Equivalence of the Poincaré inequality with a transport-chi-square inequality in dimension one
Benjamin Jourdain 1
(2012-06-26)

In this paper, we prove that, in dimension one, the Poincaré inequality is equivalent to a new transport-chi-square inequality linking the square of the quadratic Wasserstein distance with the chi-square pseudo-distance. We also check tensorization of this transport-chi-square inequality.
