Definition and certain convergence properties of a two-scale method for Monge-Amp\`ere type equations
Abstract
The Monge-Amp\`{e}re equation arises in the theory of optimal transport. When more complicated cost functions are involved in the optimal transportation problem, which are motivated e.g. from economics, the corresponding equation for the optimal transportation map becomes a Monge-Amp\`{e}re type equation. Such Monge-Amp\`{e}re type equations are a topic of current research from the viewpoint of mathematical analysis. From the numerical point of view there is a lot of current research for the Monge-Amp\`{e}re equation itself and rarely for the more general Monge-Amp\`{e}re type equation. Introducing the notion of discrete -convexity as well as specifically designed barrier functions this purely theoretical paper extends the very recently studied two-scale method approximation of the Monge-Amp\`{e}re itself \cite{NochettoNtogkasZhang2018} to the more general Monge-Amp\`{e}re type equation as it arises e.g. in \cite{PhillippisFigalli2013} in the context of Sobolev regularity.
