We prove that for a symmetric Markov semigroup, Ricci curvature bounded from below by a non-positive constant combined with a finite L-infinity-mixing time implies the modified log-Sobolev inequality. Such L-infinity-mixing time estimates always hold for Markov semigroups that have spectral gap and finite Varopoulos dimension. Our results apply to non-ergo dic quantum Markov semigroups with noncommutative Ricci curvature bounds recently introduced by Carlen and Maas. As an application, we prove that the heat semigroup on a compact Riemannian manifold admits a uniform modified log-Sobolev inequality for all its matrix-valued extensions. Published by Elsevier Inc.
