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…

A new information-theoretic approach to the central limit theorem for stable laws is presented. The main novelty is the concept of relative fractional Fisher information, which shares most of the properties of the classical one, included…

This paper is concerned with the hypercoercivity property of solutions to the Cauchy problem on the linear Boltzmann equation with a confining potential force. We obtain the exponential time rate of solutions converging to the steady state…

We consider an inhomogeneous linear Boltzmann equation, with an external confining potential. The collision operator is a simple relaxation toward a local Maxwellian, therefore without diffusion. We prove the exponential time decay toward…

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 present in this work variants of existing estimates for the Landau or Landau-Fermi-Dirac entropy dissipation, in terms of Fisher information, in the hard potential case. The specificity of those variants is that the entropy is never used…
