Petz's monotonicity conjecture for the scalar curvature of the Kubo–Mori metric

From papers

Let D1D_1 and D2D_2 be states, and write D1D2D_1\prec D_2 when D1D_1 is more mixed than D2D_2 in the majorization order. Let Scal(D)\operatorname{Scal}(D) denote the scalar curvature of the state space induced by the canonical correlation inner product as a Riemannian metric at the point DD. Petz's monotonicity conjecture. If D1D2D_1\prec D_2, then

Scal(D1)>Scal(D2).\operatorname{Scal}(D_1)>\operatorname{Scal}(D_2).

This conjecture predicts that scalar curvature strictly decreases as states become less mixed; its resolution is not established by the supplied text.
