Most common Optimal Transport (OT) solvers are currently based on an approximation of underlying measures by discrete measures. However, it is sometimes relevant to work only with moments of measures instead of the measure itself, and many…

Regression analysis for responses taking values in general metric spaces has received increasing attention, particularly for settings with Euclidean predictors $X \in \mathbb{R}^p$ and non-Euclidean responses $Y$ in metric spaces. While…

In this note, we propose polynomial-time algorithms solving the Monge and Kantorovich formulations of the $\infty$-optimal transport problem in the discrete and finite setting. It is the first time, to the best of our knowledge, that…

The question of which costs admit unique optimizers in the Monge-Kantorovich problem of optimal transportation between arbitrary probability densities is investigated. For smooth costs and densities on compact manifolds, the only known…

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…

Motivated by optimal re-balancing of a portfolio, we formalize an optimal transport problem in which the transported mass is scaled by a mass-change factor depending on the source and destination. This allows direct modeling of the creation…

In the current book I suggest an off-road path to the subject of optimal transport. I tried to avoid prior knowledge of analysis, PDE theory and functional analysis, as much as possible. Thus I concentrate on discrete and semi-discrete…
