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…
In this paper, we investigate Monge-Kantorovich problems for which the absolute continuity of marginals is relaxed. For $X,Y\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ let $(X,\mathcal{B}_X,\mu)$ and $(Y,\mathcal{B}_Y,\nu)$ be two Borel probability spaces,…
In this work we study a modification of the Monge-Kantorovich problem taking into account path dependence and interaction effects between particles. We prove existence of solutions under mild conditions on the data, and after imposing…
In the first part of the paper we briefly decribe the classical problem, raised by Monge in 1781, of optimal transportation of mass. We discuss also Kantorovich's weak solution of the problem, which leads to general existence results, to a…
We informally review a few PDEs for which the Monge-Kantorovich distance between pairs of solutions, possibly with some judicious cost function, decays: heat equation, Fokker-Planck equation, heat equation with varying coefficients,…
We address the Monge problem in metric spaces with a geodesic distance: (X, d) is a Polish space and dN is a geodesic Borel distance which makes (X,dN) a possibly branching geodesic space. We show that under some assumptions on the…
We analyze continuous optimal transport problems in the so-called Kantorovich form, where we seek a transport plan between two marginals that are probability measures on compact subsets of Euclidean space. We consider the case of…
We analyze optimal transport problems with additional entropic cost evaluated along curves in the Wasserstein space which join two probability measures $m_0,m_1$. The effect of the additional entropy functional results into an elliptic…

We introduce and study a multi-marginal optimal partial transport problem. Under a natural and sharp condition on the dominating marginals, we establish uniqueness of the optimal plan. Our strategy of proof establishes and exploits a…
We study the Lagrangian formulation of a class of the Monge-Kantorovich optimal transportation problem. It can be considered a stochastic optimal transportation problem for absolutely continuous stochastic processes. A cost function and…
We consider an extension of the Monge-Kantorovitch optimal transportation problem. The mass is transported along a continuous semimartingale, and the cost of transportation depends on the drift and the diffusion coefficients of the…
We address the Monge problem in metric spaces with a geodesic distance: (X, d) is a Polish space and dL is a geodesic Borel distance which makes (X,dL) a non branching geodesic space. We show that under the assumption that geodesics are…
This note exposes the differential topology and geometry underlying some of the basic phenomena of optimal transportation. It surveys basic questions concerning Monge maps and Kantorovich measures: existence and regularity of the former,…
We introduce fast algorithms for generalized unnormalized optimal transport. To handle densities with different total mass, we consider a dynamic model, which mixes the $L^p$ optimal transport with $L^p$ distance. For $p=1$, we derive the…
