We discuss equations associated to Cournot-Nash Equilibria as put forward recently by Blanchet and Carlier. These equations are related to an optimal transport problem in which the source measure is known, but the target measure is part of…
We investigate metric conditions that allow to prove existence and uniqueness of a map solving the Monge problem between two marginals in a metric (measure) space, proving two main results. Firstly, we introduce a nonsmooth version of the…
In this paper, we consider the Monge optimal transport problem with distance cost. We prove that in some metric spaces, possibly with many branching geodesics, an optimal transport map exists if the first marginal is absolutely continuous.…
In this paper, we establish several geometric properties of boundary sections of convex solutions to the Monge-Amp\`ere equations: the engulfing and separating properties and volume estimates. As applications, we prove a covering lemma of…
We present new geometric intuition on dynamical versions of regularized optimal transport. We introduce two families of variational problems on Riemannian manifolds which contain analogues of the Schr\"odinger bridge problem and the Yasue…

In many scientific fields imaging is used to relate a certain physical quantity to other dependent variables. Therefore, images can be considered as a map from a real-world coordinate system to the non-negative measurements being acquired.…
We will study variations in Sobolev spaces of optimal transport maps with the standard Gaussian measure as the reference measure. Some dimension free inequalities will be obtained. As application, we construct solutions to Monge-Ampere…
We show the volume maximizing property of the special Lagrangian submanifolds of a pseudo-Euclidean space. These special Lagrangian submanifolds arise locally as gradient graphs of solutions to Monge-Ampere Equations.
A key inequality which underpins the regularity theory of optimal transport for costs satisfying the Ma--Trudinger--Wang condition is the Pogorelov second derivative bound. This translates to an apriori interior $C^1$ estimate for smooth…
We construct new examples of Monge-Amp\`{e}re metrics with polyhedral singular structures, motivated by problems related to the optimal transport of point masses and to mirror symmetry. We also analyze the stability of the singular…
The aim of this paper is to obtain quantitative bounds for solutions to the optimal matching problem in dimension two. These bounds show that up to a logarithmically divergent shift, the optimal transport maps are close to be the identity…
