Phi-entropies for Fokker-Planck and kinetic Fokker-Planck equations
Phi-entropies for Fokker-Planck and kinetic Fokker-Planck equations
This paper is devoted to $\phi$-entropies applied to Fokker-Planck and kinetic Fokker-Planck equations in the whole space, with confinement. The so-called $\phi$-entropies are Lyapunov functionals which typically interpolate between Gibbs entropies and L2 estimates. We review some of their properties in the case of diffusion equations of Fokker-Planck type, give …
