We simplify the geometric interpretation of the weak Ma-Trudinger-Wang condition for regularity in optimal transportation and provide a geometric proof of the global c-convexity of locally $c$-convex potentials when the cost function $c$ is…
Optimal maps, solutions to the optimal transportation problems, are completely determined by the corresponding c-convex potential functions. In this paper, we give simple sufficient conditions for a smooth function to be c-convex when the…

Consider transportation of one distribution of mass onto another, chosen to optimize the total expected cost, where cost per unit mass transported from x to y is given by a smooth function c(x,y). If the source density f^+(x) is bounded…
A key inequality which underpins the regularity theory of optimal transport for costs satisfying the Ma--Trudinger--Wang condition is the Pogorelov second derivative bound. This translates to an apriori interior $C^1$ estimate for smooth…
The stability of solutions to optimal transport problems under variation of the measures is fundamental from a mathematical viewpoint: it is closely related to the convergence of numerical approaches to solve optimal transport problems and…
We prove that if $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ is a (not necessarily strictly) convex, $C^1$ domain, and $\mu$ and $\bar{\mu}$ are probability measures absolutely continuous with respect to surface measure on $\partial \Omega$, with…
In this note we prove that, if the cost function satisfies some necessary structural conditions and the densities are bounded away from zero and infinity, then strictly $c$-convex potentials arising in optimal transportation belong to…
We prove existence of an optimal transport map in the Monge-Kantorovich problem associated to a cost $c(x,y)$ which is not finite everywhere, but coincides with $|x-y|^2$ if the displacement $y-x$ belongs to a given convex set $C$ and it is…
Let $(X,d,m)$ be a proper, non-branching, metric measure space. We show existence and uniqueness of optimal transport maps for cost written as non-decreasing and strictly convex functions of the distance, provided $(X,d,m)$ satisfies a new…
Let $X$ and $Y$ be domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ equipped with respective probability measures $\mu$ and $ \nu$. We consider the problem of optimal transport from $\mu$ to $\nu$ with respect to a cost function $c: X \times Y \to \mathbb{R}$. To…
In this note, we extend the regularity theory for monotone measure-preserving maps, also known as optimal transports for the quadratic cost optimal transport problem, to the case when the support of the target measure is an arbitrary convex…
This paper concerns the regularity and geometry of the free boundary in the optimal partial transport problem for general cost functions. More specifically, we prove that a $C^1$ cost implies a locally Lipschitz free boundary. As an…
We develop an $\e$-regularity theory at the boundary for a general class of Monge-Amp\`ere type equations arising in optimal transportation. As a corollary we deduce that optimal transport maps between H\"older densities supported on $C^2$…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the cost function so that the map solution of Monge's optimal transportation problem is continuous for arbitrary smooth positive data. This condition was first introduced by Ma, Trudinger and…
We study the regularity of optimal transport maps between convex domains with quadratic cost. For nondegenerate $C^{\alpha}$-densities, we prove $C^{1, 1-\varepsilon}$-regularity of the potentials up to the boundary. If in addition the…

We are interested in the cost-convex potentials in optimal mass transport theory, and we show by direct and geometric arguments the equivalence between cost-subdifferentials and ordinary subdifferentials of cost-convex functions, under the…
We study optimal mass transport problems between two measures with respect to a non-traditional cost function, i.e. a cost $c$ which can attain the value $+\infty$. We define the notion of $c$-compatibility and strong-$c$-compatibility of…
We extend a dimensional upper bound on how much an optimal transport map can degenerate for the quadratic transportation cost, originally due to Caffarelli, to cost functions that satisfy the curvature condition of Ma, Trudinger, and Wang.
