In this short note, we consider the problem of prescribing the Gauss curvature and image of the Gauss map for the graph of a function over a domain in Euclidean space. The prescription of the image of the Gauss map turns this into a second…

Entropic regularization is a method for large-scale linear programming. Geometrically, one traces intersections of the feasible polytope with scaled toric varieties, starting at the Birch point. We compare this to log-barrier methods, with…

We study the notion of debiasability for cost functions arising in optimal transport. We call a symmetric cost function $c:\mathscr{X}\times\mathscr{X}\to\mathbb{R}\cup\{+\infty\}$ debiasable if it satisfies $c(x,y)\ge…
