We study the convexity of mutual information as a function of time along the flow of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. We prove that if the initial distribution is strongly log-concave, then mutual information is eventually convex, i.e.,…

We prove the following type of discrete entropy monotonicity for sums of isotropic, log-concave, independent and identically distributed random vectors $X_1,\dots,X_{n+1}$ on $\mathbb{Z}^d$: $$ H(X_1+\cdots+X_{n+1}) \geq H(X_1+\cdots+X_{n})…
