We consider Grenander type estimators for a monotone function $\lambda:[0,1]\to\mathbb{R}$, obtained as the slope of a concave (convex) estimate of the primitive of $\lambda$. Our main result is a central limit theorem for the Hellinger…

We consider a class of non-conformal expanding maps on the $d$-dimensional torus. For an equilibrium measure of an H\"older potential, we prove an analogue of the Central Limit Theorem for the fluctuations of the logarithm of the measure of…

Coupling probability measures lies at the core of many problems in statistics and machine learning, from domain adaptation to transfer learning and causal inference. Yet, even when restricted to deterministic transports, such couplings are…

We prove a central limit theorem for stationary multiple (random) fields of martingale differences $f\circ T_{\underline{i}}$, $\underline{i}\in \Bbb Z^d$, where $T_{\underline{i}}$ is a $\Bbb Z^d$ action. In most cases the multiple…

This paper presents a novel two-step approach for the fundamental problem of learning an optimal map from one distribution to another. First, we learn an optimal transport (OT) plan, which can be thought as a one-to-many map between the two…

In this work, we establish a Trotter-Kato type theorem. More precisely, we characterize the convergence in distribution of Feller processes by examining the convergence of their generators. The main novelty lies in providing quantitative…

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,…

We investigate the approximation of the Monge problem (minimizing \int\_$\Omega$ |T (x) -- x| d$\mu$(x) among the vector-valued maps T with prescribed image measure T \# $\mu$) by adding a vanishing Dirichlet energy, namely $\epsilon$…

We provide a sharp rate of convergence in the central limit theorem for random vectors with an unconditional, log-concave density. The argument relies on analysis of the Neumann laplacian on convex domains and on the theory of optimal…

We consider the $L^\infty$-optimal mass transportation problem \[ \min_{\Pi(\mu, \nu)} \gamma-\mathrm{ess\,sup\,} c(x,y), \] for a new class of costs $c(x,y)$ for which we introduce a tentative notion of twist condition. In particular we…
