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…

We study a multi-marginal optimal transportation problem on a Riemannian manifold, with cost function given by the average distance squared from multiple points to their barycenter. Under a standard regularity condition on the first…

We consider optimal transport problems where the cost is optimized over controlled dynamics and the end time is free. Unlike the classical setting, the search for optimal transport plans also requires the identification of optimal "stopping…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ equipped with respective probability measures $\mu$ and $ \nu$. We consider the problem of optimal transport from $\mu$ to $\nu$ with respect to a cost function $c: X \times Y \to \mathbb{R}$. To…

We study a multi-marginal optimal transport problem with surplus $b(x_{1}, \ldots, x_{m})=\sum_{\{i,j\}\in P} x_{i}\cdot x_{j}$, where $P\subseteq Q:=\{\{i,j\}: i, j \in \{1,2,...m\}, i \neq j\}$. We reformulate this problem by associating…

We prove the existence of an optimal map for the Monge problem when the cost is a supercritical Mane potential on a compact manifold. Supercritical Mane potentials form a class of costs which generalize the Riemannian distances. We describe…
