Turn the set of permutations of $n$ objects into a graph $G_n$ by connecting two permutations that differ by one transposition, and let $\sigma_t$ be the simple random walk on this graph. In a previous paper, Berestycki and Durrett [In…

We investigate the stability of the Wasserstein distance, a metric structure on the space of probability measures arising from the theory of optimal transport, under metric ultralimits. We first show that if $(X_{i},d_{i})_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$…
