Characterization of the -condition by monotonicity of -entropy
Let be a compact Riemannian manifold, or a complete Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry, and let f\begin{in}C^\infty(M)\end{in} satisfy . Suppose that the -entropy associated with either the heat equation of the Witten Laplacian or the optimal transport problem is non-decreasing for .
characterization conjecture. Then the -condition holds, that is,
This conjecture proposes a converse to the known implication from the -condition to convexity and entropy monotonicity, characterizing the curvature-dimension condition on complete Riemannian manifolds through monotonicity of the -entropy. Its status is not resolved in the supplied source.
