In this paper, we study the optimal transportation for generalized Lagrangian $L=L(x, u,t)$, and consider the cost function as following: $$c(x, y)=\inf_{\substack{x(0)=x\\x(1)=y\\u\in\mathcal{U}}}\int_0^1L(x(s), u(x(s),s), s)ds.$$ Where…
For the Monge-Amp\`ere equation with a right-hand side bounded away from 0 and infinity, we show that the solution, subject to the natural boundary condition arising in optimal transport, is in $W^{2,1+\varepsilon}$ up to the boundary.
We establish the stability of solutions to the entropically regularized optimal transport problem with respect to the marginals and the cost function. The result is based on the geometric notion of cyclical invariance and inspired by the…
We study the dual formulation of the Monge-Kantorovich optimal transportation problem, in particular under what circumstances it is permitted in an infinite dimensional setting to use cylindrical functions, i.e. functions of the form…
It is well known that the quadratic-cost optimal transportation problem is formally equivalent to the second boundary value problem for the Monge-Amp\`ere equation. Viscosity solutions are a powerful tool for analysing and approximating…
