Abstract:
McKean conjectured that Gaussian random variables are optimal for the n\text{th} order derivative of differential entropy along the heat flow, and verified this for n=1,2. Recently, Zhang, Anantharam and Geng introduced the linear matrix inequality approach to show that this conjecture holds for n \leq 5 under the log-concavity assumption. In this work, with the same assumption, we improve their method using the positive semidefinite reformulation and validate McKean's conjecture for n \leq 9, and also the completely monotone conjecture for n\leq 11.
