In this paper, we develop a general theory for the transport equation within the framework of Triebel-Lizorkin spaces. We first derive commutator estimates in these spaces, dispensing with the conventional divergence-free condition, via the…

We establish that solving an optimal transportation problem in which the source and target densities are defined on manifolds with different dimensions, is equivalent to solving a new nonlocal analog of the Monge-Amp\`ere equation,…

In this note, we propose a probabilistic approach to bound the (dimension-free) Lipschitz constant of the Langevin flow map on $\mathbb{R}^d$ introduced by Kim and Milman (2012). As example of application, we construct Lipschitz maps from a…

In this paper we show how using a relativistic kinetic equation the ensuing expression for the heat flux can be casted in the form required by Classical Irreversible Thermodynamics. Indeed, it is linearly related to the temperature and…

The least gradient problem (minimizing the total variation with given boundary data) is equivalent, in the plane, to the Beckmann minimal-flow problem with source and target measures located on the boundary of the domain, which is in turn…

We exhibit a one-parameter family of first-order real elliptic systems on the plane whose ellipticity constant degenerates to zero as $\delta\to 0$, with condition number $\kappa = O(\delta^{-2})$. For any fixed elliptic solver operating at…

In order to circumvent the difficulties in solving numerically the discrete optimal transport problem, in which one minimizes the linear target function $P\mapsto\langle C,P\rangle:=\sum_{i,j}C_{ij}P_{ij}$, Cuturi introduced a variant of…

Conformal mapping has been applied mostly to harmonic functions, i.e. solutions of Laplace's equation. In this paper, it is noted that some other equations are also conformally invariant and thus equally well suited for conformal mapping in…
