      In this paper, based on the fact entropic barrier of a convex body being \((1+o(1))n\)-self-concordant barrier given by Bubeck and Eldan, the authors first improve their result to \(n\)-self-concordant barrier for convex bodies, then they obtain an optimal bound of \(n\) on the self-concordance parameter as a consequence of the dimensional improvements of the log-Sobolev, Talagrand and Brascamp-Lieb inequalities introduced by Bolley-Gentil-Guillin.\N\NFor the entire collection see [Zbl 1527.46003].
