If M is a smooth compact connected Riemannian manifold, let P(M) denote the Wasserstein space of probability measures on M. We describe a geometric construction of parallel transport of some tangent cones along geodesics in P(M). We show…
We propose a new notion of the formal tangent space to the Wasserstein space $\mathcal{P}(X)$ at a given measure. Modulo an integrability condition, we say that this tangent space is made of functions over $X$ which are valued in the…
The Hellinger-Kantorovich (HK) space provides a natural geometry for nonnegative measures with varying total mass, but its differential-geometric structure is less well understood than that of the closely related Wasserstein space of…
Given a submanifold $M\subset \mathbf{R}^\nu$, a curve $\gamma:I\to M$ and tangent vectors $v$ along $\gamma$, we roll the tangent space along $\gamma$. In doing so, we get an imprint/trace of $\gamma$ on the tangent space, as well as an…
We provide a complete description of the tangent space of the cone of monotone plans in $\R\times \R$ with prescribed first projection. We show that elements of this tangent space are essentially made of two simple building-block types of…
If M is a smooth compact Riemannian manifold, let P(M) denote the Wasserstein space of probability measures on M. If S is an embedded submanifold of M, and $\mu$ is an absolutely continuous measure on S, then we compute the tangent cone of…
We develop a notion of projections between sets of probability measures using the geometric properties of the 2-Wasserstein space. It is designed for general multivariate probability measures, is computationally efficient to implement, and…
The adapted Bures--Wasserstein space consists of Gaussian processes endowed with the adapted Wasserstein distance. It can be viewed as the analogue of the classical Bures--Wasserstein space in optimal transport for the setting of stochastic…
The linear transports along paths in vector bundles introduced in Ref. [1] are applied to the special case of tensor bundles over a given differentiable manifold. Links with the transports along paths generated by derivations of tensor…
As a contribution to the ongoing discussion of trajectories of spinless particles in spaces with torsion we show that the geometry of such spaces can be induced by embedding their curves in a euclidean space without torsion. Technically…
Many scientific systems, such as cellular populations or economic cohorts, are naturally described by probability distributions that evolve over time. Predicting how such a system would have evolved under different forces or initial…
We introduce Wasserstein-like dynamical transport distances between vector-valued densities on the real line. The mobility function from the scalar theory is replaced by a mobility matrix, that is subject to positivity and concavity…
We extend the geometric study of the Wasserstein space W(X) of a simply connected, negatively curved metric space X by investigating which pairs of boundary points can be linked by a geodesic, when X is a tree.
On the space of probability densities, we extend the Wasserstein geodesics to the case of higher-order interpolation such as cubic spline interpolation. After presenting the natural extension of cubic splines to the Wasserstein space, we…
Often it is possible to equip the space of all cone geodesics of a strongly convex cone structure with the structure of a smooth contact manifold. This generalizes the analogous notions for the space of light rays of a Lorentzian spacetime.…
This work aims to establish new results pertaining to the structure of transportation cost spaces. Due to the fact that those spaces were studied and applied in various contexts, they have also become known under different names such as…
We propose a general notion of parallel transport on $\sf RCD$ spaces, prove an unconditioned uniqueness result and existence under suitable assumptions on the space.
Kendall shape spaces are a widely used framework for the statistical analysis of shape data arising from many domains, often requiring the parallel transport as a tool to normalise time series data or transport gradient in optimisation…
In this article, we derive conditions for the existence of solutions to state-constrained continuity inclusions in Wasserstein spaces whose right-hand sides may be discontinuous in time. These latter are based on a fine investigation of the…
In this paper we study two basic facts of optimal transportation on Wiener space W. Our first aim is to answer to the Monge Problem on the Wiener space endowed with the Sobolev type norm (k,gamma) to the power of p (cases p = 1 and p > 1…
