The concavity of $p$-Rényi entropy power for doubly nonlinear diffusion equations and $L^p$-Gagliardo-Nirenberg-Sobolev inequalities

Abstract: We prove the concavity of $p$-R\'enyi entropy power for positive solutions to the doubly nonlinear diffusion equations on $\mathbb{R}^n$ or compact Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. As applications, we give new proofs of the sharp $L^p$-Sobolev inequality and $L^p$-Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Moreover, two improvement of $L^p$-Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities are derived.
