In this paper we show a number of logarithmic inequalities on several classes of Lie groups: log-Sobolev inequalities on general Lie groups, log-Sobolev (weighted and unweighted), log-Gagliardo-Nirenberg and log-Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities on graded Lie groups. Furthermore, on stratified groups, we show that one of the obtained inequalities is equivalent to a Grosstype log-Sobolev inequality with the horizontal gradient. As a result, we obtain the Gross log-Sobolev inequality on general stratified groups but, very interestingly, with the Gaussian measure on the first stratum of the group. Moreover, our methods also yield weighted versions of the Gross log-Sobolev inequality. In particular, we also obtain new weighted Gross-type log-Sobolev inequalities on R n for arbitrary choices of homogeneous quasi-norms. As another consequence we derive the Nash inequalities on graded groups and an example application to the decay rate for the heat equations for sub-Laplacians on stratified groups. We also obtain weighted versions of log-Sobolev and Nash inequalities for general Lie groups.
