We study a multi-marginal optimal transport problem with surplus $b(x_{1}, \ldots, x_{m})=\sum_{\{i,j\}\in P} x_{i}\cdot x_{j}$, where $P\subseteq Q:=\{\{i,j\}: i, j \in \{1,2,...m\}, i \neq j\}$. We reformulate this problem by associating…

A natural and important question in multi-marginal optimal transport is whether the \emph{Monge ansatz} is justified; does there exist a solution of Monge, or deterministic, form? We address this question for the quadratic cost when each…

We investigate a new multi-marginal optimal transport problem arising from a dissociation model in the Strong Interaction Limit of Density Functional Theory. In this short note, we introduce such dissociation model, the corresponding…

This note establishes that a generalization of $c$-cyclical monotonicity from the Monge-Kantorovich problem with two marginals gives rise to a sufficient condition for optimality also in the multi-marginal version of that problem. To obtain…

We prove the existence of an optimal map for the Monge problem when the cost is a supercritical Mane potential on a compact manifold. Supercritical Mane potentials form a class of costs which generalize the Riemannian distances. We describe…
