Abstract: In this paper, we study strong modified transportation cost inequalities for k-concave probability measures with heavy tails. We provide the polynomial-type concentration, dual representation, and tensorization properties for this kind of inequalities. And we provide integral sufficient conditions for k−concave measures (−1Keywords: Strong modified transportation cost inequalities; Polynomial-type concentration inequalities; Dual representation; Tensorization; k-concave probability measures (search for similar items in EconPapers)
