In this paper the theory of uniformly convex metric spaces is developed. These spaces exhibit a generalized convexity of the metric from a fixed point. Using a (nearly) uniform convexity property a simple proof of reflexivity is presented…

The Monge-Kantorovich problem for the infinite Wasserstein distance presents several peculiarities. Among them the lack of convexity and then of a direct duality. We study in dimension 1 the dual problem introduced by Barron, Bocea and…

A Riemannian metric bundle G(M) is a fiber bundle over a smooth manifold M, whose fibers are the spaces of symmetric, positive-definite bilinear forms on the tangent spaces of M, which represent the Rieman?nian metrics. In this work, we aim…

We construct smooth bundles with base and fiber products of two spheres whose total spaces have non-vanishing $\hat{A}$-genus. We then use these bundles to locate non-trivial rational homotopy groups of spaces of Riemannian metrics with…

In this paper, we prove that a metric measure space which has at least one open set isometric to an interval, and for which the (possibly non-unique) optimal transport map exists from any absolutely continuous measure to an arbitrary…

A measure theoretical approach is presented to study the Monge-Kantorovich optimal mass transport problem. This approach together with Kantorovich duality provide an effective tool to answer a long standing question about the support of…

Using the dual formulation only, we show that the regularity of unbalanced optimal transport also called entropy-transport inherits from the regularity of standard optimal transport. We provide detailed examples of Riemannian manifolds and…

We show that for a metric space with an even number of points there is a 1-Lipschitz map to a tree-like space with the same matching number. This result gives the first basic version of an unoriented Kantorovich duality. The study of the…

An analogue of the quadratic Wasserstein (or Monge-Kantorovich) distance between Borel probability measures on $\mathbf{R}^d$ has been defined in [F. Golse, C. Mouhot, T. Paul: Commun. Math. Phys. 343 (2015), 165-205] for density operators…

We solve the remaining cases of the Riemann mapping problem of Escobar. Indeed, performing a suitable scheme of the barycenter technique of Bahri-Coron via the Chen's bubbles, we solve the cases left open after the work of Chen. Thus,…
