In this paper we propose a gauge-theoretic approach to the problems of optimal mass transport for vector and matrix densities. This resolves both the issues of positivity and action transitivity constraints. Bures-type metrics on the…

We propose a new approach for unsupervised alignment of heterogeneous datasets, which maps data from two different domains without any known correspondences to a common metric space. Our method is based on an unbalanced optimal transport…

This article gives an introduction to optimal transport, a mathematical theory that makes it possible to measure distances between functions (or distances between more general objects), to interpolate between objects or to enforce…

We propose a discrete transport equation on graphs which connects distributions on both vertices and edges. We then derive a discrete analogue of the Benamou-Brenier formulation for Wasserstein-$1$ distance on a graph and as a result…

In the geometric transportation problem, we are given a collection of points $P$ in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space, and each point is given a supply of $\mu(p)$ units of mass, where $\mu(p)$ could be a positive or a negative integer, and…

Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional smooth oriented complete embedded minimal hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with Euclidean volume growth. We show that if the image under the Gauss map of $M$ avoids some neighborhood of a half-equator, then…

Given a transportation cost $c: M \times\bar M \to\mathbf{R}$, optimal maps minimize the total cost of moving masses from $M$ to $\bar M$. We find a pseudo-metric and a calibration form on $M\times\bar M$ such that the graph of an optimal…
