Given a transportation cost $c: M \times\bar M \to\mathbf{R}$, optimal maps minimize the total cost of moving masses from $M$ to $\bar M$. We find a pseudo-metric and a calibration form on $M\times\bar M$ such that the graph of an optimal…

We prove existence of an optimal transport map in the Monge-Kantorovich problem associated to a cost $c(x,y)$ which is not finite everywhere, but coincides with $|x-y|^2$ if the displacement $y-x$ belongs to a given convex set $C$ and it is…
