英文摘要 | This paper studies the properties of the derivatives of differential entropy H(X-t) in Costa's entropy power inequality. For real-valued random variables, Cheng and Geng conjectured that for m >= 1, (-1)(m+1)(d(m)/dt(m))H(X-t) >= 0, while McKean conjectured a stronger statement, whereby (-1)(m+1)(d(m)/dt(m))H(X-t) >= (-1)(m+1)(d(m)/dt(m))H(X-Gt). Here, we study the higher dimensional analogues of these conjectures. In particular, we study the veracity of the following two statements: C-1(m, n) : (-1)(m+1)(d(m)/dt(m))H(X-t) >= 0, where n denotes that X-t is a random vector taking values in R-n, and similarly, C-2(m, n) : (-1)(m+1)(d(m)/dt(m))H(X-t) >= (-1)(m+1)(d(m)/dt(m))H(X-Gt) >= 0. In this paper, we prove some new multivariate cases: C-1(3,i), i = 2,3,4. Motivated by our results, we further propose a weaker version of McKean's conjecture C-3(m, n) : (-1)(m+1)(d(m)/dt(m))H(X-t) >= (-1)(m+1)1/n(d(m)/dt(m))H(X-Gt), which is implied by C-2(m,n) and implies C-1(m,n). We prove some multivariate cases of this conjecture under the log-concave condition: C-3(3,i),i = 2,3,4 and C-3(4,2). A systematic procedure to prove C-l(m,n) is proposed based on symbolic computation and semidefinite programming, and all the new results mentioned above are explicitly and strictly proved using this procedure. |
