We investigate the convergence rate of multi-marginal optimal transport costs that are regularized with the Boltzmann-Shannon entropy, as the noise parameter $\varepsilon$ tends to $0$. We establish lower and upper bounds on the difference…

If $L$ is a selfdual Lagrangian $L$ on a reflexive phase space $X\times X^*$, then the vector field $x\to \bar\partial L(x):=\{p\in X^*; (p,x)\in \partial L(x,p)\}$ is maximal monotone. Conversely, any maximal monotone operator $T$ on $X$…

We study the fixed point problem for a system of multivariate operators that are coordinate-wise monotone (i.e., nondecreasing or nonincreasing in each of the variables, independently), in the setting of quasi-ordered sets. We show that…

The cost functions considered are $c(x,y)=h(x-y)$, with $h\in C^2(R^n)$, homogeneous of degree $p\geq 2$, with positive definite Hessian in the unit sphere. We consider monotone maps $T$ concerning that cost and establish local…

Maximally monotone operators play important roles in optimization, variational analysis and differential equations. Finding zeros of maximally monotone operators has been a central topic. In a Hilbert space, we show that most resolvents are…
