Abstract

We show that, for any metric probability space (M, d, μ) with a subgaussian constant σ 2(μ) and any Borel measurable set A ⊂ M, we have \(\sigma ^{2}(\mu _{A}) \leq c\log \left (e/\mu (A)\right )\sigma ^{2}(\mu )\), where μ A is a normalized restriction of μ to the set A and c is a universal constant. As a consequence, we deduce concentration inequalities for non-Lipschitz functions.
