Adversarial optimal transport has been proven useful as a mathematical formulation to model resource allocation problems to maximize the efficiency of transportation with an adversary, who modifies the data. It is often the case, however,…

This paper studies the geometry of the optimizer for the optimal transport problem with capacity constraints. We introduce the concept of c-capacity monotonicity, which is a generalization of c-cyclical monotonicity in optimal transport. We…

In this paper we extend the duality theory of the multi-marginal optimal transport problem for cost functions depending on a decreasing function of the distance (not necessarily bounded). This class of cost functions appears in the context…

We study a dynamic optimal transport problem on a network. Despite the cost for transport along the edges, an additional cost, scaled with a parameter $\kappa$, has to be paid for interchanging mass between edges and vertices. We show…

Most approximate exchange-correlation functionals used within density functional theory are constructed as the sum of two distinct contributions for exchange and correlation. Separating the exchange component from the entire functional is…
