Equality of relative-entropy, Riemannian and geodesic contraction coefficients
Equality of relative-entropy, Riemannian and geodesic contraction coefficients
Let be the specified class of metrics, let , and let be a stochastic map for which the contraction coefficients below are defined. The quantities , , , and denote the relative-entropy, Riemannian, geodesic, and Dobrushin contraction coefficients, respectively.
Equality conjecture. For each fixed ,
The conjecture asserts that the three contraction coefficients agree and are bounded above by the Dobrushin coefficient; the paper presents it among conjectures that had already been discussed, without supplying a resolution.
