It is shown that if $\,u(x,t)\,$ is a solution of the initial value problem for the Camassa-Holm equation which vanishes in an open set $\,\Omega\subset \mathbb R\times [0,T]$, then $\,u(x,t)=0,\,(x,t)\in\mathbb R\times [0,T]$. This result…

This work originates from a heart's images tracking which is to generate an apparent continuous motion, observable through intensity variation from one starting image to an ending one both supposed segmented. Given two images p0 and p1, we…
We introduce the \emph{transport energy} functional $\mathcal E$ (a variant of the Bouchitt\'e-Buttazzo-Seppecher shape optimization functional) and we prove that its unique minimizer is the optimal transport density $\mu^*$, i.e., the…
This paper introduces the r-Camassa-Holm (r-CH) equation, which describes a geodesic flow on the manifold of diffeomorphisms acting on the real line induced by the W1,r metric. The conserved energy is for the problem is given by the full…

Optimal transport (OT) and unbalanced optimal transport (UOT) are central in many machine learning, statistics and engineering applications. 1D OT is easily solved, with complexity O(n log n), but no efficient algorithm was known for 1D…
We discuss a new notion of distance on the space of finite and nonnegative measures which can be seen as a generalization of the well-known Kantorovich-Wasserstein distance. The new distance is based on a dynamical formulation given by an…
We study a class of (conservative) low regularity solutions to the Camassa-Holm equation on the line by exploiting the classical moment problem (in the framework of generalized indefinite strings) to develop the inverse spectral transform…
We extend the inverse spectral transform for the conservative Camassa-Holm flow on the line to a class of initial data that requires strong decay at one endpoint but only mild boundedness-type conditions at the other endpoint. The latter…
This paper deals with the large-scale behaviour of dynamical optimal transport on $\mathbb{Z}^d$-periodic graphs with general lower semicontinuous and convex energy densities. Our main contribution is a homogenisation result that describes…
We study traveling wave solutions of the nonlinear variational wave equation. In particular, we show how to obtain global, bounded, weak traveling wave solutions from local, classical ones. The resulting waves consist of monotone and…
In this paper, we consider first order Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) equations posed on a ``junction'', that is to say the union of a finite number of half-lines with a unique common point. For this continuous HJ problem, we propose a finite…
There are several hybrid inverse problems for equations of the form $\nabla \cdot D \nabla u - \sigma u = 0$ in which we want to obtain the coefficients $D$ and $\sigma$ on a domain $\Omega$ when the solutions $u$ are known. One approach is…
We consider massively dense ad hoc networks and study their continuum limits as the node density increases and as the graph providing the available routes becomes a continuous area with location and congestion dependent costs. We study both…
In this paper, we propose a numerical method to solve the classic $L^2$-optimal transport problem. Our algorithm is based on use of multiple shooting, in combination with a continuation procedure, to solve the boundary value problem…
