The goal of the paper is to give an optimal transport formulation of the full Einstein equations of general relativity, linking the (Ricci) curvature of a space-time with the cosmological constant and the energy-momentum tensor. Such an…
For any transfer operator we establish the equivalence of variational principles for $t$-entropy, the spectral potential and entropy statistic theorem and give new proofs for all these statements.
This note outlines a mean-field approach to dynamic optimal transport problems based on the recently proposed McKean-Pontryagin maximum principle. Key aspects of the proposed methodology include i) avoidance of sampling over stochastic…
Entropically regularized optimal transport between probability measures supported on compact subsets of Euclidean space admits a representation as an information projection under moment inequality constraints. Exploiting this structure, I…
We prove a new extremal inequality, motivated by the vector Gaussian broadcast channel and the distributed source coding with a single quadratic distortion constraint problems. As a corollary, this inequality yields a generalization of the…
We prove the transportation inequality with the uniform norm for the laws of diffusion processes with Lipschitz and/or dissipative coefficients and apply them to some singular stochastic differential equations of interest.
This paper investigates the connections between rectified flows, flow matching, and optimal transport. Flow matching is a recent approach to learning generative models by estimating velocity fields that guide transformations from a source…
All living cells transport molecules and ions across membranes, often against concentration gradients. This active transport requires continual energy expenditure and is clearly a nonequilibrium process for which standard equilibrium…
The following note proves that conditional entropy of a sequence is almost time-reversal invariant, specifically they only differ by a small constant factor dependent only upon the forward and backward models that the entropies are being…
We prove existence and uniqueness results for solutions to a class of optimal transportation problems with infinitely many marginals, supported on the real line. We also provide a characterization of the solution with an explicit formula.…
We show that energy concepts can contribute to the understanding of human travel behaviour. First, the average travel times for different modes of transportation are inversely proportional to the energy consumption rates measured for the…
Optimal transport has gained significant attention in recent years due to its effectiveness in deep learning and computer vision. Its descendant metric, the Wasserstein distance, has been particularly successful in measuring distribution…
We introduce an inequality which may be viewed as a generalization of both the Brascamp-Lieb inequality and its reverse (Barthe's inequality), and prove its information-theoretic (i.e.\ entropic) formulation. This result leads to a unified…
To remedy the drawbacks of full-mass or fixed-mass constraints in classical optimal transport, we propose adaptive optimal transport which is distinctive from the classical optimal transport in its ability of adaptive-mass preserving. It…
A recent paper by Cordero-Erausquin and Klartag provides a characterization of the measures $\mu$ on $\R^d$ which can be expressed as the moment measures of suitable convex functions $u$, i.e. are of the form $(\nabla u)\_\\#e^{- u}$ for…
We study connections between optimal transport and anomalous thermal relaxations. A prime example of anomalous thermal relaxations is the Mpemba effect, which occurs when a hot system overtakes an identical warm system and cools down…
We derive an equality for non-equilibrium statistical mechanics in finite-dimensional quantum systems. The equality concerns the worst-case work output of a time-dependent Hamiltonian protocol in the presence of a Markovian heat bath. It…
We obtain several averaging lemmas for transport operator with a force term. These lemmas improve the regularity yet known by not considering the force term as part of an arbitrary right-hand side. Two methods are used: local variable…
In previous work (see arxiv:1102.3040), we have defined the telescopic relative entropy (TRE), which is a regularisation of the quantum relative entropy $S(\rho||\sigma)=\trace\rho(\log\rho-\log\sigma)$, by replacing the second argument…
For probability measures on countable spaces we derive distributional limits for empirical entropic optimal transport quantities. More precisely, we show that the empirical optimal transport plan weakly converges to a centered Gaussian…
