Improvement of Wu's logarithmic Sobolev inequality via the Poisson-F\"ollmer process
Abstract
We give an alternative proof to Wu's logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the Poisson measure on the nonnegative integers using a stochastic variational formula for entropy. We show that this approach leads to improvement of Wu's inequality under convexity assumptions.
