Contraction properties of transport maps between probability measures play an important role in the theory of functional inequalities. The actual construction of such maps, however, is a non-trivial task and, so far, relies mostly on the…

In this paper, Monge-Kantorovich problem is considered in the infinite dimension on an abstract Wiener space $(W, H,\mu)$, where $H$ is Cameron-Martin space and $\mu$ is the Gaussian measure. We study the regularity of optimal transport…
We consider strictly log-concave measures, whose bounds degenerate at infinity. We prove that the optimal transport map from the Gaussian onto such a measure is locally Lipschitz, and that the eigenvalues of its Jacobian have controlled…
We consider the modified Monge-Kantorovich problem with additional restriction: admissible transport plans must vanish on some fixed functional subspace. Different choice of the subspace leads to different additional properties optimal…
