Spatial coupling has recently emerged as a powerful paradigm to construct graphical models that work well under low-complexity message-passing algorithms. Although much progress has been made on the analysis of spatially coupled models…

We analyze a number of natural estimators for the optimal transport map between two distributions and show that they are minimax optimal. We adopt the plugin approach: our estimators are simply optimal couplings between measures derived…

In many statistical settings, two types of data are available: coupled data, which preserve the joint structure among variables but are limited in size due to cost or privacy constraints, and marginal data, which are available at larger…

We consider the regular Lagrangian flow X associated to a bounded divergence-free vector field b with bounded variation. We prove a Lusin-Lipschitz regularity result for X and we show that the Lipschitz constant grows at most linearly in…

In this paper, we establish a coupling lemma for standard families in the setting of piecewise expanding interval maps with countably many branches. Our method merely requires that the expanding map satisfies Chernov's one-step expansion at…

In this paper, we consider a finite-dimensional optimization problem minimizing a continuous objective on a compact domain subject to a multi-dimensional constraint function. For the latter, we assume the availability of a global Lipschitz…

Entropic Brenier maps are regularized analogues of Brenier maps (optimal transport maps) which converge to Brenier maps as the regularization parameter shrinks. In this work, we prove quantitative stability bounds between entropic Brenier…

We consider two examples for a well-known method for obtaining concentration of measure (COM) bounds for a given observable in a given measure. The method is to consider an auxiliary Markov chain for which the invariant distribution is the…

Let $A \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, $d\ge 2$, be a compact convex set and let $\mu = \varrho_0 dx$ be a probability measure on $A$ equivalent to the restriction of Lebesgue measure. Let $\nu = \varrho_1 dx$ be a probability measure on $B_r :=…

The aim of this work is to investigate semi-Lagrangian approximation schemes on unstructured grids for viscous transport and conservative equations with measurable coefficients that satisfy a one-sided Lipschitz condition. To establish the…

We give a sufficient and necessary condition for a probability measure $\mu$ on the real line to satisfy the logarithmic Sobolev inequality for convex functions. The condition is expressed in terms of the unique left-continuous and…

We obtain an explicit uniform upper bound for the derivative of a conformal mapping of the unit disk onto a convex domain. This estimate depends only on the outer and inner radii of the domain, and on a curvature radius of its boundary. Its…

We extend the classical regularity theory of optimal transport to non-optimal transport maps generated by heat flow for perturbations of Gaussian measures. Considering probability measures of the form $d\mu(x) = \exp\left(-\frac{|x|^2}{2} +…

We employ techniques from optimal transport in order to prove decay of transfer operators associated to iterated functions systems and expanding maps, giving rise to a new proof without requiring a Doeblin-Fortet (or Lasota-Yorke)…

We consider the Lipschitz continuous dependence of solutions for the Novikov equation with respect to the initial data. In particular, we construct a Finsler type optimal transport metric which renders the solution map Lipschitz continuous…

The least gradient problem (minimizing the total variation with given boundary data) is equivalent, in the plane, to the Beckmann minimal-flow problem with source and target measures located on the boundary of the domain, which is in turn…

This paper presents a general framework for solving the control allocation problem (CAP) in thrust-vector controlled rigid-bodies with an arbitrary number of thrusters. Two novel solutions are proposed: a closed-form, Lipschitz continuous…

We consider the problem of estimating the optimal transport map between two probability distributions, $P$ and $Q$ in $\mathbb R^d$, on the basis of i.i.d. samples. All existing statistical analyses of this problem require the assumption…
