We provide a geometric interpretation of the well known A3w condition for regularity of optimal transport maps.
Counterexamples to continuity of optimal transportation on Riemannian manifolds with everywhere positive sectional curvature are provided. These examples show that the condition A3w of Ma, Trudinger, & Wang is not guaranteed by positivity…
We establish global H\"older estimates for solutions to inhomogeneous linearized Monge-Amp\`ere equations in two dimensions with the right hand side being the divergence of a bounded vector field. These equations arise in the…
Given a coercive Hamiltonian which is quasi-convex with respect to the gradient variable and periodic with respect to time and space at least "far away from the origin", we consider the solution of the Cauchy problem of the corresponding…
Many problems in geometric optics or convex geometry can be recast as optimal transport problems: this includes the far-field reflector problem, Alexandrov's curvature prescription problem, etc. A popular way to solve these problems…
Multi-wave inverse problems are indirect imaging methods using the interaction of two different imaging modalities. One brings spatial accuracy, and the other contrast sensitivity. The inversion method typically involve two steps. The first…
In the category of metrics with conical singularities along a smooth divisor with angle in $(0, 2\pi)$, we show that locally defined weak solutions ($C^{1,1}-$solutions) to the K\"ahler-Einstein equations actually possess maximum…
We establish a weighted pointwise Jacobian determinant inequality on corank 1 Carnot groups related to optimal mass transportation akin to the work of Cordero-Erausquin, McCann and Schmuckenschl\"ager. In this setting, the presence of…
Consider the problem of optimally matching two measures on the circle, or equivalently two periodic measures on the real line, and suppose the cost of matching two points satisfies the Monge condition. We introduce a notion of locally…
We present three novel forms of the Monge-Ampere equation, which is used, e.g., in image processing and in reconstruction of mass transportation in the primordial Universe. The central role in this paper is played by our Fourier integral…
We present a self-contained analysis of a particular family of metrics over the set of non-negative integers. We show that these metrics, which are defined through a nested sequence of optimal transport problems, provide tight estimates for…

We study the most common image and informal description of the optimal transport problem for quadratic cost, also known as the second boundary value problem for the Monge--Amp\`{e}re equation -- What is the most efficient way to fill a hole…
In this series of lectures we introduce the Monge-Kantorovich problem of optimally transporting one distribution of mass onto another, where optimality is measured against a cost function c(x,y). Connections to geometry, inequalities, and…
We first obtain the interior $C^{1,1}$-regularity and solvability for the degenerate real Monge-Amp\`ere equation in a bounded, $C^3$-smooth and strictly convex domain in $\mathbb R^d$ ($d\ge2$), assuming that the boundary data is only…
We show existence of unique smooth solutions to the Monge-Ampere equation for (n-1)-plurisubharmonic functions on Hermitian manifolds, generalizing previous work of the authors. As a consequence we obtain Calabi-Yau theorems for Gauduchon…
We collect examples of boundary-value problems of Dirichlet and Dirichlet-Neumann type which we found instructive when designing and analysing numerical methods for fully nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations. In particular, our…
This is a PhD thesis about generated Jacobian equations; our purpose is twofold. First, we provide an introduction to these equations, whilst, at the same time, collating some results scattered throughout the literature. The other goal is…
