Optimal transportation problem seeks for a coupling $\pi$ of two probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ which minimize the total cost $\int c d\pi$, which is linear in $\pi$. In this paper, we introduce a variation of optimal transportation…
In this paper, we want to establish some general results in the Lorentzian optimal transport theory that have well-known Riemannian counterparts. As a first result, we will provide non-trivial assumptions on the measures to ensure strong…
We study solutions to the multi-marginal Monge-Kantorovich problem which are concentrated on several graphs over the first marginal. We first present two general conditions on the cost function which ensure, respectively, that any solution…
