We prove existence of an optimal transport map in the Monge-Kantorovich problem associated to a cost $c(x,y)$ which is not finite everywhere, but coincides with $|x-y|^2$ if the displacement $y-x$ belongs to a given convex set $C$ and it is…

We provide an algorithm to approximate a finitely supported discrete measure $\mu$ by a measure $\nu_{N}$ corresponding to a set of $N$ points so that the total variation between $\mu$ and $\nu_N$ has an upper bound. As a consequence if…

In this paper, we prove a structure theorem for discrete optimal transportation plans. We show that, given any pair of discrete probability measures and a cost function, there exists an optimal transportation plan that can be expressed as…

An equation of Monge-Amp\`ere type has, for the first time, been solved numerically on the surface of the sphere in order to generate optimally transported (OT) meshes, equidistributed with respect to a monitor function. Optimal transport…

In this paper we study the three-marginal optimal mass transportation problem for the Coulomb cost on the plane $\R^2$. The key question is the optimality of the so-called Seidl map, first disproved by Colombo and Stra. We generalize the…

We prove tight upper bounds on the logarithmic derivative of the independence and matching polynomials of d-regular graphs. For independent sets, this theorem is a strengthening of the results of Kahn, Galvin and Tetali, and Zhao showing…

For a Radon measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, define $C^n_\mu(x, t)= \ (\frac{1}{t^n} \ |\int_{B(x,t)} \frac{x-y}{t} \, d\mu(y)\ | \ )$. This coefficient quantifies how symmetric the measure $\mu$ is by comparing the center of mass at a…

A natural and important question in multi-marginal optimal transport is whether the \emph{Monge ansatz} is justified; does there exist a solution of Monge, or deterministic, form? We address this question for the quadratic cost when each…

We prove existence and uniqueness of optimal maps on $RCD^*(K,N)$ spaces under the assumption that the starting measure is absolutely continuous. We also discuss how this result naturally leads to the notion of exponentiation.

We study stochastic differential equations on the $d$-dimensional flat torus $\mathbb{T}^d$ with drift and perturbation coefficients in $L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T}^d;\mathbb{R}^d)$ and additive non-degenerate noise. For the associated transfer…

We consider the free additive convolution of two probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ on the real line and show that $\mu\boxplus\nu$ is supported on a single interval if $\mu$ and $\nu$ each has single interval support. Moreover, the…

For a probability measure $\mu$ on SL d (R), we consider the Furstenberg stationary measure on the space of flags. Under general non-degeneracy conditions, if $\mu$ is discrete and if g log g d$\mu$(g) < +$\infty$, then the measure $\nu$ is…

We consider the inverse problem of estimating an unknown function $u$ from noisy measurements $y$ of a known, possibly nonlinear, map $\mathcal{G}$ applied to $u$. We adopt a Bayesian approach to the problem and work in a setting where the…

In this paper we study the relation between the existence of a conformal measure on the Julia set $J(f)$ of a transcendental meromorphic map $f$ and the existence of zero of the topological pressure function $t \mapsto P(f, t)$ for the map…

We investigate stability properties of weak supermartingale optimal transport (WSOT) problems on $\mathbb{R}$. For probability measures $\mu,\nu\in\mathcal{P}_r$ satisfying $\mu \leq_{cd} \nu$ (equivalently, $\Pi_S(\mu,\nu)\neq\emptyset$),…

We prove the non-existence of special generic maps on complex projective space as our extended new result. Simplest special generic maps are Morse functions with exactly two singular points on spheres, or Morse functions in Reeb's theorem,…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 2$, be a bounded connected $C^2$ domain. For any unit vector $\nu\in\mathbb{R}^n$, let $T_{\lambda}^{\nu}=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^n:x\cdot\nu=\lambda\}$,…

We study the dynamics of polynomial-like mappings in several variables. A special case of our results is the following theorem. Let f be a proper holomorphic map from an open set U onto a Stein manifold V, $U\subset\subset V$. Assume f is…

We develop new solvability methods for divergence form second order, real and complex, elliptic systems above Lipschitz graphs, with $L_2$ boundary data. The coefficients $A$ may depend on all variables, but are assumed to be close to…
