Generalized curvature for the optimal transport problem induced by a Tonelli Lagrangian

Abstract

We propose a generalized curvature that is motivated by the optimal transport problem on Rd\mathbb{R}^d with cost induced by a Tonelli Lagrangian LL. We show that non-negativity of the generalized curvature implies displacement convexity of the generalized entropy functional on the LL-Wasserstein space along C2C^2 displacement interpolants.
