The optimal (Monge-Kantorovich) transportation problem is discussed from several points of view. The Lagrangian formulation extends the action of the {\em Lagrangian} $L(v,x,t)$ from the set of orbits in $\R^n$ to a set of measure-valued…

We rephrase Monge's optimal transportation (OT) problem with quadratic cost--via a Monge-Amp\`ere equation--as an infinite-dimensional optimization problem, which is in fact a convex problem when the target is a log-concave measure with…
