Optimal transportation problem seeks for a coupling $\pi$ of two probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ which minimize the total cost $\int c d\pi$, which is linear in $\pi$. In this paper, we introduce a variation of optimal transportation…

The Monge-Kantorovich problem is revisited by means of a variant of the saddle-point method without appealing to $c$-conjugates. A new abstract characterization of the optimal plans is obtained in the case where the cost function takes…

We describe some analogy between optimal transport and the Schr\"odinger problem where the transport cost is replaced by an entropic cost with a reference path measure. A dual Kantorovich type formulation and a Benamou-Brenier type…
