Functional Inequalities Markov Semigroups and Spectral TheoryFunctional Inequalities Markov Semigroups and Spectral Theory

In this book, the functional inequalities are introduced to describe:
(i) the spectrum of the generator: the essential and discrete spectrums, high order eigenvalues, the principle eigenvalue, and the spectral gap;
(ii) the semigroup properties: the uniform intergrability, the compactness, the convergence rate, and the existence of density;
(iii) the reference measure and the intrinsic metric: the concentration, the isoperimetic inequality, and the transportation cost inequality.

I was very pleased with this particular purchase. The book arrived in great condition, and was exactly as described in terms of content. The main reason I bought it is because it was written by Raymond Smullyan. Only he could write such a great book. It is my second most prized book, the first being Smullyan's other book, "To Mock A Mockingbird," which I also purchased from Amazon.
