An exact computer-assisted lower bound for Fisher-information convexity along the two-dimensional heat flow

We study the sharp constant in the differential inequality \[ I(t)I''(t)\geq c\,[I'(t)]^2 \] for Fisher information along the probability-normalized heat flow on $\mathbb R^2$. The unrestricted log-convexity value $c=1$ is false in two dimensions, whereas the known square-root convexity theorem gives the universal valu...
