Abstract
We characterize the symmetric real random variables which satisfy the one dimensional convex infimum convolution inequality of Maurey. We deduce Talagrand's two-level concentration for random vector (X1, Xn), where Xi 's are independent real random variables whose tails satisfy certain exponential type decay condition.
