It is strange but fruitful to think about the functions as random processes. Any function can be viewed as a martingale (in many different ways) with discrete time. But it can be useful to have continuous time too. Processes can emulate…

In this paper, we introduce a new numerical algorithm for solving the Dirichlet problem for the real Monge--Ampere equation. The idea is to represent the non-linear Monge--Ampere operator as an infimum of a class of linear elliptic…
We consider the numerical solution of the optimal transport problem between densities that are supported on sets of unequal dimension. Recent work by McCann and Pass reformulates this problem into a non-local Monge-Amp\`ere type equation.…
