Motivated by applications to geometric inequalities, Gozlan, Roberto, Samson, and Tetali introduced a transport problem for `weak' cost functionals. Basic results of optimal transport theory can be extended to this setup in remarkable…

The fundamental theorem of classical optimal transport establishes strong duality and characterizes optimizers through a complementary slackness condition. Milestones such as Brenier's theorem and the Kantorovich-Rubinstein formula are…

We introduce a general notion of transport cost that encompasses many costs used in the literature (including the classical one and weak transport costs introduced by Talagrand and Marton in the 90's), and prove a Kantorovich type duality…

In this article we revisit the weak optimal transport (WOT) problem, introduced by Gozlan, Roberto, Samson and Tetali (2017). We work on the real line, with barycentric cost functions, and as our first result give the following…

We analyze continuous optimal transport problems in the so-called Kantorovich form, where we seek a transport plan between two marginals that are probability measures on compact subsets of Euclidean space. We consider the case of…

In this paper, we establish a Kantorovich duality for weak optimal total variation transport problems. As consequences, we recover a version of duality formula for partial optimal transports established by Caffarelli and McCann; and we also…

Weak optimal transport generalizes the classical theory of optimal transportation to nonlinear cost functions and covers a range of problems that lie beyond the traditional theory - including entropic transport, martingale transport, and…

We develop a full theory for the new class of Optimal Entropy-Transport problems between nonnegative and finite Radon measures in general topological spaces. They arise quite naturally by relaxing the marginal constraints typical of Optimal…

This paper focuses on martingale optimal transport problems when the martingales are assumed to have bounded quadratic variation. First, we give a result that characterizes the existence of a probability measure satisfying some convex…

We consider weak optimal problems (possibly entropically penalized) incorporating both soft and hard (including the case of the martingale condition) moment constraints. Even in the special case of the martingale optimal transport problem,…

The Monge-Kantorovich problem for the infinite Wasserstein distance presents several peculiarities. Among them the lack of convexity and then of a direct duality. We study in dimension 1 the dual problem introduced by Barron, Bocea and…

The optimal (Monge-Kantorovich) transportation problem is discussed from several points of view. The Lagrangian formulation extends the action of the {\em Lagrangian} $L(v,x,t)$ from the set of orbits in $\R^n$ to a set of measure-valued…
