Given a family of real probability measures $(\mu_t)_{t\geq 0}$ increasing in convex order (a peacock) we describe a systematic method to create a martingale exactly fitting the marginals at any time. The key object for our approach is the…

In this paper, we exhibit a new family of martingale couplings between two one-dimensional probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ in the convex order. This family is parametrised by two dimensional probability measures on the unit square with…
We investigate stability properties of weak supermartingale optimal transport (WSOT) problems on $\mathbb{R}$. For probability measures $\mu,\nu\in\mathcal{P}_r$ satisfying $\mu \leq_{cd} \nu$ (equivalently, $\Pi_S(\mu,\nu)\neq\emptyset$),…

The basic problem of optimal transportation consists in minimizing the expected costs $\mathbb {E}[c(X_1,X_2)]$ by varying the joint distribution $(X_1,X_2)$ where the marginal distributions of the random variables $X_1$ and $X_2$ are…
We introduce a new non-linear optimal transport formulation for a pair of probability measures on $\mathbb{R}^d$ sharing a common barycentre, in which admissible transference plans satisfy two martingale-type constraints. This bi-martingale…
We give a characterization of optimal transport plans for a variant of the usual quadratic transport cost introduced in [33]. Optimal plans are composition of a deterministic transport given by the gradient of a continuously differentiable…
Continuity of the value of the martingale optimal transport problem on the real line w.r.t. its marginals was recently established in Backhoff-Veraguas and Pammer [2] and Wiesel [21]. We present a new perspective of this result using the…
In many statistical settings, two types of data are available: coupled data, which preserve the joint structure among variables but are limited in size due to cost or privacy constraints, and marginal data, which are available at larger…
Entropic Brenier maps are regularized analogues of Brenier maps (optimal transport maps) which converge to Brenier maps as the regularization parameter shrinks. In this work, we prove quantitative stability bounds between entropic Brenier…

We study an optimal transport problem with a backward martingale constraint in a pseudo-Euclidean space $S$. We show that the dual problem consists in the minimization of the expected values of the Fitzpatrick functions associated with…
We study metric projections onto cones in the Wasserstein space of probability measures, defined by stochastic orders. Dualities for backward and forward projections are established under general conditions. Dual optimal solutions and their…

Quantization provides a very natural way to preserve the convex order when approximating two ordered probability measures by two finitely supported ones. Indeed, when the convex order dominating original probability measure is compactly…
In this paper, we consider the problem of minimizing the sum of two convex functions subject to linear linking constraints. The classical alternating direction type methods usually assume that the two convex functions have relatively easy…
