We show that the problem of finding the barycenter in the Hellinger-Kantorovich setting admits a least-cost soft multi-marginal formulation, provided that a one-sided hard marginal constraint is introduced. The constrained approach is then…

We study a rather general class of optimal "ballistic" transport problems for matrix-valued measures. These problems naturally arise, in the spirit of \emph{Y. Brenier. Comm. Math. Phys. (2018) 364(2) 579-605}, from a certain dual…
We explore the geometry of the Bures-Wasserstein space for potentially degenerate Gaussian measures on a separable Hilbert space. In this general setting, the optimal transport map is formally the subgradient of a convex function that is…

We develop a full theory for the new class of Optimal Entropy-Transport problems between nonnegative and finite Radon measures in general topological spaces. They arise quite naturally by relaxing the marginal constraints typical of Optimal…
Consider the Monge-Kantorovich problem of transporting densities $\rho_0$ to $\rho_1$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with a strictly convex cost function. A popular relaxation of the problem is the one-parameter family called the entropic cost problem.…

In the field of optimal transport, two prominent subfields face each other: (i) unregularized optimal transport, "\`a-la-Kantorovich", which leads to extremely sparse plans but with algorithms that scale poorly, and (ii)…
