We study the structural properties of multi-period martingale optimal transport (MOT). We develop new tools to address these problems, and use them to prove several uniqueness and structural results on three-period martingale optimal…
We rephrase Monge's optimal transportation (OT) problem with quadratic cost--via a Monge-Amp\`ere equation--as an infinite-dimensional optimization problem, which is in fact a convex problem when the target is a log-concave measure with…
Multi-marginal optimal transport plans are concentrated on c-splitting sets. It is known that, similar to the two-marginal case, c-splitting sets are c-cyclically monotone. Within a suitable framework, the converse implication was very…

We provide a pointwise bipolar theorem for liminf-closed convex sets of positive Borel measurable functions on a sigma-compact metric space without the assumption that the polar is a tight set of measures. As applications we derive a…
In this paper, we investigate optimal (partial) transport problems for which the target is a non-convex polygonal domain in \(\mathbb{R}^2\). For the complete optimal transport problem, we prove that the singular set is locally a smooth…
We prove existence of an optimal transport map in the Monge-Kantorovich problem associated to a cost $c(x,y)$ which is not finite everywhere, but coincides with $|x-y|^2$ if the displacement $y-x$ belongs to a given convex set $C$ and it is…
