Abstract

The relative entropy for two different degenerate diffusion processes is estimated by using the Wasserstein distance of initial distributions and the difference between coefficients. As applications, the entropy-cost inequality and exponential ergodicity in entropy are derived for distribution dependent stochastic Hamiltonian systems associated with nonlinear kinetic Fokker-Planck equations.
