Abstract: | In this paper, we give characterizations of Nash inequalities for birth-death process and diffusion process on the line.
As a by-product, we prove that for these processes, transience implies that the semigroups P(t) decay as
∥P(t)∥1→∞≥Ct
−1.
Sufficient conditions for general Markov chains are also obtained.
