Contraction properties of transport maps between probability measures play an important role in the theory of functional inequalities. The actual construction of such maps, however, is a non-trivial task and, so far, relies mostly on the…
In this paper we consider the Benamou-Brenier formulation of optimal transport for nonlinear control affine systems on $\Rd$, removing the compactness assumption of the underlying manifold in previous work by the author. By using Bernard's…
