Given two n-dimensional measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ on Polish spaces, we propose an optimal transportation's formulation, inspired by classical Kan-torovitch's formulation in the scalar case. In particular, we established a strong duality…

Let $X$ be a Polish space, $\mathcal{P}(X)$ be the set of Borel probability measures on $X$, and $T\colon X\to X$ be a homeomorphism. We prove that for the simplex $\mathrm{Dom} \subseteq \mathcal{P}(X)$ of all $T$-invariant measures, the…

Suppose that $c(x,y)$ is the cost of transporting a unit of mass from $x\in X$ to $y\in Y$ and suppose that a mass distribution $\mu$ on $X$ is transported optimally (so that the total cost of transportation is minimal) to the mass…
