InPartAweaddressthelinksbetweenthefollowingtopicsDTO,HGE,IGEandENT.Thosetopics
arepresentedasverticesofasquarewhosecentre isdenotedbyKVH.
(1) DTOstands forDifferentialTOpology. InDTO,FWEstands forFoliationsandWEbs.
(2) HGE stands for Hessian GEometry. Its sources are the geometry of bounded domains,
the topology of bounded domains, the analysis in bounded domains. Among the notable
references are [1â3]. Hessiangeometryhas signiïŹcant impacts on thermodynamics, see [4,5],
About the impactsonotherrelatedtopics thereadersarereferredto [6â12].
(3) IGEstands for InformationGEometry. That is thegeometryofstatisticalmodels.Moregenerally
its concern is thedifferential geometryof statisticalmanifolds. The rangeof the information
geometry is large [13].Currently, the interest in informationgeometry is increasing. Thiscomes
fromthe linkswithmanymajorresearchdomains [14â16].WeaddresssomesigniïŹcantaspects

e.g.,physics, chemistry,biologyandïŹnance.
(4) ENTstands forENTropy. Thenotionofentropyappears inmanymathematical topics, inPhysics,
in thermodynamics and inmechanics. Recent interest in the entropy functionarises from its
topological nature [14]. In Part B we introduce the entropy ïŹow of a pair of vector ïŹelds.
TheFisher information is thendeïŹnedas theHessianof theentropyïŹow.
(5) KVHstandsforKVHomology. ThetheoryofKVhomologywasdevelopedin[9]. Themotivation
was the conjectureofM.Gerstenhaber in the categoryof locallyïŹatmanifolds. In thispaper
weemphasize othernotable rolesplayedby the theoryofKVhomology. It is alsouseful for
discussingaproblemraisedbyJohnMilnor in [26].
TheconjectureofGerstenhaber is the followingclaim.
Everyrestricted theoryofdeformationgenerates itsproper cohomology theory [27].
Looselyspeaking, inarestrictedtheoryofdeformationonehas thenotionofboth inïŹnitesimal
deformationand trivialdeformation. Thechallenge is the search for a cochain complexadmitting
inïŹnitesimaldeformationsascocycles. In thepresentpaper,KVH isuseful foremphasizingthe links
betweentheverticesDTO,HGE, IGEandENT. That isourreasonfordevotingasectiontoKVH.
