Abstract
The aim of this paper is to give a characterization of the dimension free concentration of measure phenomenon in terms of transportation-cost inequalities. We apply this theorem to give a new and very short proof of a result by Otto and Villani. Another application is to show that the Poincaré inequality is equivalent to a certain form of dimension free exponential concentration. The proofs of all these results rely on simple Large Deviations techniques.
