The branched transport problem, a popular recent variant of optimal transport, is a non-convex and non-smooth variational problem on Radon measures. The so-called urban planning problem, on the contrary, is a shape optimization problem that…
Models involving branched structures are employed to describe several supply-demand systems such as the structure of the nerves of a leaf, the system of roots of a tree and the nervous or cardiovascular systems. Given a flow (traffic path)…
We consider so-called branched transport and variants thereof in two space dimensions. In these models one seeks an optimal transportation network for a given mass transportation task. In two space dimensions, they are closely connected to…
Recently a Dynamic-Monge-Kantorovich formulation of the PDE-based $L^1$-optimal transport problem was presented. The model considers a diffusion equation enforcing the balance of the transported masses with a time-varying conductivity that…
Branched Optimal Transport (BOT) is a generalization of optimal transport in which transportation costs along an edge are subadditive. This subadditivity models an increase in transport efficiency when shipping mass along the same route,…
We consider the problem of optimal approximation of a target measure by an atomic measure with $N$ atoms, in branched optimal transport distance. This is a new branched transport version of optimal quantization problems. New difficulties…
The Gilbert-Steiner problem is a mass transportation problem, where the cost of the transportation depends on the network used to move the mass and it is proportional to a certain power of the "flow". In this paper, we introduce a new…
We consider two different variational models of transport networks, the so-called branched transport problem and the urban planning problem. Based on a novel relation to Mumford-Shah image inpainting and techniques developed in that field,…
A prominent model for transportation networks is branched transport, which seeks the optimal transportation scheme to move material from a given initial to a final distribution. The cost of the scheme encodes a higher transport efficiency…
We consider a branched transport problem with weakly imposed boundary conditions. This problem arises as a reduced model for pattern formation in type-I superconductors. For this model, it is conjectured that the dimension of the boundary…
In the optimal partial transport problem, one is asked to transport a fraction $0<m \leq \min\{||f||_{L^1}, ||g||_{L^1}\}$ of the mass of $f=f \chi_\Omega$ onto $g=g\chi_\Lambda$ while minimizing a transportation cost. If $f$ and $g$ are…
We address the problem of optimal transport with a quadratic cost functional and a constraint on the flux through a constriction along the path. The constriction, conceptually represented by a toll station, limits the flow rate across. We…
Optimal transportation provides a means of lifting distances between points on a geometric domain to distances between signals over the domain, expressed as probability distributions. On a graph, transportation problems can be used to…
We consider a branched transport type problem with weakly imposed boundary conditions, which can be seen as a blown-up version of a reduced model for type-I superconductors in the regime of vanishing external magnetic field. We prove that…
The notions of the Euclidean surface area measure and the spherical surface area measure of $\alpha$-concave functions in $\mathbb{R}^n$, with $-\frac{1}{n}<\alpha<0$, are introduced via a first variation of the total mass functional with…
This paper deals with a variant of the optimal transportation problem. Given f $\in$ L 1 (R d , [0, 1]) and a cost function c $\in$ C(R d x R d) of the form c(x, y) = k(y -- x), we minimise $\int$ c d$\gamma$ among transport plans $\gamma$…
In branched transportation problems mass has to be transported from a given initial distribution to a given final distribution, where the cost of the transport is proportional to the transport distance, but subadditive in the transported…
The dynamical formulation of optimal transport, also known as Benamou-Brenier formulation or Computational Fluid Dynamics formulation, amounts to write the optimal transport problem as the optimization of a convex functional under a PDE…
We construct Two-Point Flux Approximation (TPFA) finite volume schemes to solve the quadratic optimal transport problem in its dynamic form, namely the problem originally introduced by Benamou and Brenier. We show numerically that these…
The branching geometry of biological transport networks is characterized by a diameter scaling exponent $\alpha$. Two structural attractors compete: impedance matching ($\alpha \sim 2$) for pulsatile flow and viscous-metabolic minimization…
