Abstract

We consider the problem of optimal exchange which can be formulated as a kind of optimal transportation problem. The existence of an optimal solution and a duality theorem for the optimal exchange problem are proved in case of completely regular topological spaces. We show the connection between the problem of optimal exchange and the optimal transportation problem with density constraints. With the use of this connection we obtain a formula for the optimal value in the problem of optimal exchange.
