We show that the nonlocal Fisher information - defined as the entropy dissipation of the Boltzmann entropy for nonlocal heat equations - admits a natural lifting in the sense of Guillen and Silvestre (2025). Important examples include the…
We give conditions for an O(1/n) rate of convergence of Fisher information and relative entropy in the Central Limit Theorem. We use the theory of projections in L2 spaces and Poincare inequalities, to provide a better understanding of the…

Classically, Fisher information is the relevant object in defining optimal experimental designs. However, for models that lack certain regularity, the Fisher information does not exist and, hence, there is no notion of design optimality…
We introduce the Fisher information in the basis of decay modes of Markovian dynamics, arguing that it encodes important information about the behavior of nonequilibrium systems. In particular we generalize an orthonormality relation…
