Relaxation Kernel, Spectral Dissipation, and Global Convergence of Blahut--Arimoto Dynamics
arXiv:2604.25106v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We develop a spectral theory for continuous- and discrete-time Blahut--Arimoto (BA) dynamics, centered on the relaxation kernel $ \G = \E_p[K^*_X \otimes K^*_X] $. Five main results are established. Along the continuous-time BA flow, the free energy satisfies the exact $ \chi^2 $-dissipation identity $ \dot F_\beta = -\D(q) $, where $ \D(q)=\chi^2(\T q \| q) $ is the Pearson $ \chi^2 $-divergence.
Finite-Temperature de Bruijn Identities: Fisher Information as the Spectral Gap of Blahut--Arimoto Dynamics
arXiv:2606.03813v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We uncover a finite-temperature extension of de Bruijn's identity -- the classical relation $\frac{d}{dt}h(X+\sqrt{t}Z)=\frac{1}{2}J(X)$ connecting differential entropy and Fisher information. Our framework is the spectral theory of Blahut--Arimoto (BA) dynamics, recently developed by Wang~\cite{Wang2026} for the analysis of rate-distortion optimization. The central observation is elementary yet profound: for Gaussian sources, the spectral gap...
