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…
Suppose that we have a regression problem with response variable Y in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and predictor X in $\mathbb{R}^d$, for $d \geq 1$. In permuted or unlinked regression we have access to separate unordered data on X and Y, as opposed to…
We generalize known results on transport equations associated to a Lipschitz field $\mathbf{F}$ on some subspace of $\mathbb{R}^N$ endowed with some general space measure $\mu$. We provide a new definition of both the transport operator and…
We study the convergence of an $N$-particle Markovian controlled system to the solution of a family of stochastic McKean-Vlasov control problems, either with a finite horizon or Schr\"odinger type cost functional. Specifically, under…
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…
Capacity constrained optimal transport is a variant of optimal transport, which adds extra constraints on the set of feasible couplings in the original optimal transport problem to limit the mass transported between each pair of source and…
We introduce an optimal transport topology on the space of probability measures over a fiber bundle, which penalizes the transport cost from one fiber to another. For simplicity, we illustrate our construction in the Euclidean case…
We study the quadratically regularized optimal transport (QOT) problem for quadratic cost and compactly supported marginals $\mu$ and $\nu$. It has been empirically observed that the optimal coupling $\pi_\epsilon$ for the QOT problem has…
We investigate the optimal transport problem between probability measures when the underlying cost function is understood to satisfy a least action principle, also known as a Lagrangian cost. These generalizations are useful when connecting…
We aim at quantitatively determining transport parameters like conductivity, mean free path, etc., for simple models of spatially completely disordered quantum systems, comparable to the systems which are sometimes referred to as Lifshitz…
We study the convergence of the transport plans $\gamma_\epsilon$ towards $\gamma_0$ as well as the cost of the entropy-regularized optimal transport $(c,\gamma_\epsilon)$ towards $(c,\gamma_0)$ as the regularization parameter $\epsilon$…
Many results in probability (most famously, Strassen's theorem on stochastic domination), characterize some relationship between probability distributions in terms of the existence of a particular structured coupling between them. Optimal…
We present a new ansatz space for the general symmetric multi-marginal Kantorovich optimal transport problem on finite state spaces which reduces the number of unknowns from $\tbinom{N+\ell-1}{\ell-1}$ to $\ell\cdot(N+1)$, where $\ell$ is…
The quadratically regularized optimal transport problem is empirically known to have sparse solutions: its optimal coupling $\pi_{\varepsilon}$ has sparse support for small regularization parameter $\varepsilon$, in contrast to entropic…
We prove existence and uniqueness results for solutions to a class of optimal transportation problems with infinitely many marginals, supported on the real line. We also provide a characterization of the solution with an explicit formula.…
Optimal transport (OT) theory focuses, among all maps $T:\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^d$ that can morph a probability measure onto another, on those that are the ``thriftiest'', i.e. such that the averaged cost $c(x, T(x))$ between…
Quadratic regularization has emerged as a potential alternative to the popular entropic regularization in computational optimal transport, offering the theoretical advantage of producing sparse couplings through its hinge density structure.…
In this paper we prove the existence of weak solutions to degenerate parabolic systems arising from the fully coupled moisture movement, solute transport of dissolved species and heat transfer through porous materials. Physically relevant…
In this very short paper, we provide a strong motivation for the study of the following problem: given a real normed space $E$, a closed, convex, unbounded set $X\subseteq E$ and a function $f:X\to X$, find suitable conditions under which,…
We investigate metric conditions that allow to prove existence and uniqueness of a map solving the Monge problem between two marginals in a metric (measure) space, proving two main results. Firstly, we introduce a nonsmooth version of the…
