We introduce and study the class of linear transfers between probability distributions and the dual class of Kantorovich operators between function spaces. Linear transfers can be seen as an extension of convex lower semi-continuous…
The main object of this paper is to improve some of the known estimates for classical Kantorovich operators. A quantitative Voronovskaya-type result in terms of second moduli of continuity which improves some previous results is obtained.…
We prove a conjecture regarding the asymptotic behavior at infinity of the Kantorovich potential for the Multimarginal Optimal Transport with Coulomb and Riesz costs.
In this paper the stability and the perturbation bounds of Markov operators acting on abstract state spaces are investigated. Here, an abstract state space is an ordered Banach space where the norm has an additivity property on the cone of…
Kantorovich potentials denote the dual solutions of the renowned optimal transportation problem. Uniqueness of these solutions is relevant from both a theoretical and an algorithmic point of view, and has recently emerged as a necessary…
The purpose of this paper is to study the time average behavior of Markov chains with transition probabilities being kernels of completely continuous operators, and therefore to provide a sufficient condition for a class of Markov chains…
In this paper we introduce and study a new sequence of positive linear operators acting on function spaces defined on a convex compact subset. Their construction depends on a given Markov operator, a positive real number and a sequence of…
This paper develops a novel operator theoretic framework to study the contraction properties of Markov semigroups with respect to a general class of Kantorovich semi-distances, which notably includes Wasserstein distances. The rather simple…
Linear transfers between probability distributions were introduced in [5,6] in order to extend the theory of optimal mass transportation while preserving the important duality established by Kantorovich. It is shown here that $\{0,…
A special class of doubly stochastic (Markov) operators is constructed. These operators come from measure preserving transformations and inherit some of their properties, namely ergodicity and positivity of entropy, yet they may have no…
We introduce a general notion of transport cost that encompasses many costs used in the literature (including the classical one and weak transport costs introduced by Talagrand and Marton in the 90's), and prove a Kantorovich type duality…
In this paper, we construct generalized Baskakov Kantorovich operators. We establish some direct results and then study weighted approximation, simultaneous approximation and statistical convergence properties for these operators. Finally,…
We study Kantorovich type optimal transportation problems with nonlinear cost functions, including dependence on conditional measures of transport plans. A range of nonlinear Kantorovich problems for cost functions of a special form is…
We characterize the family of continuous functions $f\in C([0,1])$ such that the iterates $\widehat{T}^{k}_{i} f$ converge uniformly on $[0,1]$, where $\widehat{T}_i$ is a generalized Kantorovich operator. This gives an affirmative answer…
The aim of the present paper is to extend Kantorovich's mass transport problem to the framework of upper/lower continuous capacities and to prove the cyclic monotonicity of the supports of optimal supermodular plans. As in the probabilistic…
We show the following result: Let $A,B\in \mathbb{B}\left( \mathcal{H} \right)$ be two strictly positive operators such that $A\le B$ and $m{{\mathbf{1}}_{\mathcal{H}}}\le B\le M{{\mathbf{1}}_{\mathcal{H}}}$ for some scalars $0<m<M$. Then…
Many behavioural equivalences or preorders for probabilistic processes involve a lifting operation that turns a relation on states into a relation on distributions of states. We show that several existing proposals for lifting relations can…
We consider the multidimensional Monge-Kantrovich transport problem in an abstract setting. Our main results state that if a cost function and marginal measures are invariant by a family of transformations, then a solution of the Kantrovich…
The Kantorovich metric provides a way of measuring the distance between two Borel probability measures on a metric space. This metric has a broad range of applications from bioinformatics to image processing, and is commonly linked to the…
We provide a unifying approach which links results on algebraic actions by Lind and Schmidt, Chung and Li, and a topological result by Meyerovitch that relates entropy to the set of asymptotic pairs. In order to do this we introduce a…
