We shall present a measure theoretical approach for which together with the Kantorovich duality provide an efficient tool to study the optimal transport problem. Specifically, we study the support of optimal plans where the cost function…
We consider the modified Monge-Kantorovich problem with additional restriction: admissible transport plans must vanish on some fixed functional subspace. Different choice of the subspace leads to different additional properties optimal…
The aim of the present paper is to extend Kantorovich's mass transport problem to the framework of upper/lower continuous capacities and to prove the cyclic monotonicity of the supports of optimal supermodular plans. As in the probabilistic…
We study a multi-marginal optimal transportation problem. Under certain conditions on the cost function and the first marginal, we prove that the solution to the relaxed, Kantorovich version of the problem induces a solution to the Monge…
We study Kantorovich type optimal transportation problems with nonlinear cost functions, including dependence on conditional measures of transport plans. A range of nonlinear Kantorovich problems for cost functions of a special form is…
This note exposes the differential topology and geometry underlying some of the basic phenomena of optimal transportation. It surveys basic questions concerning Monge maps and Kantorovich measures: existence and regularity of the former,…
We present a general method, based on conjugate duality, for solving a convex minimization problem without assuming unnecessary topological restrictions on the constraint set. It leads to dual equalities and characterizations of the…
The Monge-Kantorovich problem is revisited by means of a variant of the saddle-point method without appealing to $c$-conjugates. A new abstract characterization of the optimal plans is obtained in the case where the cost function takes…
The paper is accompanying "A general Duality Theorem for the Monge-Kantorovich Transport Problem". We explain the methods used in this article in an elementary setting and present two examples complementing the results obtained therein.

We consider Kantorovich optimal transportation problem in the case where the cost function and marginal distributions continuously depend on a parameter with values in a metric space. We prove the existence of approximate optimal Monge…
We consider the simultaneous optimal transportation of measures, where the target marginal is not necessarily fixed. For this problem, we prove the existence of a solution for completely regular spaces and investigate the structure of the…
In the first part of the paper we briefly decribe the classical problem, raised by Monge in 1781, of optimal transportation of mass. We discuss also Kantorovich's weak solution of the problem, which leads to general existence results, to a…
A probabilistic method for solving the Monge-Kantorovich mass transport problem on $R^d$ is introduced. A system of empirical measures of independent particles is built in such a way that it obeys a doubly indexed large deviation principle…
We consider the problem to transport resources/mass while abiding by constraints on the flow through constrictions along their path between specified terminal distributions. Constrictions, conceptualized as toll stations at specified…
Over the past five years, multi-marginal optimal transport, a generalization of the well known optimal transport problem of Monge and Kantorovich, has begun to attract considerable attention, due in part to a wide variety of emerging…
The duality theory of the Monge--Kantorovich transport problem is analyzed in a general setting. The spaces $X, Y$ are assumed to be polish and equipped with Borel probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$. The transport cost function $c:X\times…
We propose a model to describe the optimal distributions of residents and services in a prescribed urban area. The cost functional takes into account the transportation costs (according to a Monge--Kantorovich-type criterion) and two…

The Monge-Kantorovich transportation problem involves optimizing with respect to a given a cost function. Uniqueness is a fundamental open question about which little is known when the cost function is smooth and the landscapes containing…
