We construct an analogue of the classical $L^p$-Wasserstein distance for the state space of a $C^*$-algebra. Given an abstract Lipschitz gauge on a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ in the sense of Rieffel, one can define the classical…
The Wasserstein distances $W_p$ ($p\geq 1$), defined in terms of solution to the Monge-Kantorovich problem, are known to be a useful tool to investigate transport equations. In particular, the Benamou-Brenier formula characterizes the…
This article continues the investigation of the tracial geometry of classifiable $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras that have real rank zero and stable rank one. Using the language of optimal transport, we describe several situations in which the…
Given two continuity equations with density-dependent velocities, we provide a new formula for the Wasserstein distance between the solutions in terms of the difference of velocities evaluated at the same density. The formula is…
Investigating the direct integral decomposition of von Neumann algebras of bounded module operators on self-dual Hilbert W*-moduli an equivalence principle is obtained which connects the theory of direct disintegration of von Neumann…
We show the $L^2$-Wasserstein contraction for the transition kernel of a discretised diffusion process, under a contractivity at infinity condition on the drift and a sufficiently high diffusivity requirement. This extends recent results…
We prove the existence of global minimizers to the double minimization problem \[ \inf\Big\{ P(E) + \lambda W_p(\mathcal{L}^n \lfloor \, E,\mathcal{L}^n \lfloor\, F) \colon |E \cap F| = 0, \, |E| = |F| = 1\Big\}, \] where $P(E)$ denotes the…
We observe that the $2$-norm distance $d_{U,2}$ between the unitary orbits of normal elements in a $\mathrm{II}_1$ factor $\mathcal{M}$ is equal to the $2$-Wasserstein distance between the spectral measures induced by the trace…
A generalized unbalanced optimal transport distance ${\rm WB}_{\Lambda}$ on matrix-valued measures $\mathcal{M}(\Omega,\mathbb{S}_+^n)$ was defined in [arXiv:2011.05845] \`{a} la Benamou-Brenier, which extends the Kantorovich-Bures and the…
This work characterizes, analytically and numerically, two major effects of the quadratic Wasserstein ($W_2$) distance as the measure of data discrepancy in computational solutions of inverse problems. First, we show, in the…
We derive quantitative bounds on the rate of convergence in $L^1$ Wasserstein distance of general M-estimators, with an almost sharp (up to a logarithmic term) behavior in the number of observations. We focus on situations where the…
We introduce a new quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance between C*-algebraic compact quantum metric spaces. Because it is able to distinguish algebraic structures, this new distance fixes a weakness of Rieffel's quantum distance. We show that…
We formulate closed-form Hessian distances of information entropies in one-dimensional probability density space embedded with the L2-Wasserstein metric.
Motivated by a question of L. Robert, asking whether $\rm L(T(A)) = Lsc_{C}(T(A))$ for any separable C*-algebra A, we introduce and initiate the study of \emph{tracially reflexive C*-algebras}. We first prove that commutative C*-algebras…
We seek an analog for the quantum permutation group $S_n^+$ of the normalized Hamming distance for permutations. We define three distances on the tracial state space of $C(S_n^+)$ that generalize the $L^1$-Wasserstein distance of…
Quantum metric Choquet simplices are special kinds of compact quantum metric spaces designed for distance measurement in and around the category of stably finite Elliott-classifiable $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras. The primary objective of this…
We present a generalized optimal transport model in which the mass-preserving constraint for the $L^2$-Wasserstein distance is relaxed by introducing a source term in the continuity equation. The source term is also incorporated in the path…
We introduce the observable Wasserstein distance, a framework for deriving lower bounds on the Wasserstein distance between probability measures on Polish metric spaces, designed to bypass the computational intractability of exact optimal…
We study a quantum analogue of the 2-Wasserstein distance as a measure of proximity on the set $\Omega_N$ of density matrices of dimension $N$. We show that such (semi-)distances do not induce Riemannian metrics on the tangent bundle of…
We introduce a modified Benamou-Brenier type approach leading to a Wasserstein type distance that allows global invariance, specifically, isometries, and we show that the problem can be summarized to orthogonal transformations. This…
