The fully compressible semi-geostrophic system is widely used in the modelling of large-scale atmospheric flows. In this paper, we prove rigorously the existence of weak Lagrangian solutions of this system, formulated in the original…
Wasserstein 1 optimal transport maps provide a natural correspondence between points from two probability distributions, $\mu$ and $\nu$, which is useful in many applications. Available algorithms for computing these maps do not appear to…

Classical optimal transport problem seeks a transportation map that preserves the total mass betwenn two probability distributions, requiring their mass to be the same. This may be too restrictive in certain applications such as color or…

In this work, we present a method to compute the Kantorovich-Wasserstein distance of order one between a pair of two-dimensional histograms. Recent works in Computer Vision and Machine Learning have shown the benefits of measuring…
The function that maps a family of probability measures to the solution of the dual entropic optimal transport problem is known as the Schr\"odinger map. We prove that when the cost function is $\mathcal{C}^{k+1}$ with $k\in \mathbb{N}^*$…

Scattering theory is a standard tool for the description of transport phenomena in mesoscopic systems. Here, we provide a detailed derivation of this method for nano-scale conductors that are driven by oscillating electric or magnetic…
Suppose we are given two metric spaces and a family of continuous transformations from one to the other. Given a probability distribution on each of these two spaces - namely the source and the target measures - the Wasserstein alignment…
This paper investigates the dynamics of time-periodic Euler flows in multi-connected, planar fluid regions which are ``stirred'' by the moving boundaries. The classical Helmholtz theorem on the transport of vorticity implies that if the…
We consider uniformly rotating incompressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. We study the suppression of vertical gradients of Lagrangian displacement ("vertical" refers to the direction of the rotation axis). We employ a formalism that…
