The goal of this paper is twofold: we study metric measure spaces $(X,d,m)$ with variable lower bounds for the Ricci curvature and we study pathwise coupling of Brownian motions. Given any lower semicontinuous function $k:X\to \mathbb R$ we…
During the last decade Optimal Transport had a relevant role in the study of geometry of singular spaces that culminated with the Lott-Sturm-Villani theory. The latter is built on the characterisation of Ricci curvature lower bounds in…
The celebrated Lott-Sturm-Villani theory of metric measure spaces furnishes synthetic notions of a Ricci curvature lower bound $K$ joint with an upper bound $N$ on the dimension. Their condition, called the Curvature-Dimension condition and…
Following Ollivier's work, we introduce the coarse Ricci curvature of a quantum channel as the contraction of non-commutative metrics on the state space. These metrics are defined as a non-commutative transportation cost in the spirit of…
In this paper we investigate Lott-Sturm-Villani's synthetic lower Ricci curvature bound on Riemannian manifolds with boundary. We prove several measure rigidity results for some important functional and geometric inequalities, which…
By using optimal transport theory, we establish a sharp Alexandroff--Bakelman--Pucci (ABP) type estimate on metric measure spaces with synthetic Riemannian Ricci curvature lower bounds, and prove some geometric and functional inequalities…
The aim of the present paper is to bridge the gap between the Bakry-\'{E}mery and the Lott-Sturm-Villani approaches to provide synthetic and abstract notions of lower Ricci curvature bounds. We start from a strongly local Dirichlet form…
The goal of the paper is to give an optimal transport characterization of sectional curvature lower (and upper) bounds for smooth $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. More generally we characterize, via optimal transport, lower bounds on…
We study various transport-information inequalities under three different notions of Ricci curvature in the discrete setting: the curvature-dimension condition of Bakry and \'Emery, the exponential curvature-dimension condition of Bauer…
Optimal transport plays a major role in the study of manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below. Some results in this setting have been extended to super Ricci flows, revealing a unified approach to analysis on Ricci nonnegative manifolds…
The goal of the present work is three-fold. The first goal is to set foundational results on optimal transport in Lorentzian (pre-)length spaces, including cyclical monotonicity, stability of optimal couplings and Kantorovich duality…
We investigate the stability of timelike Ricci curvature lower bounds under low-regularity limits of Lorentzian metrics. Specifically, we prove that the synthetic curvature-dimension condition $TCD^e_p(K,N)$, which provides an optimal…
We show that the heat flow on super-Ricci flows in the sense of Sturm satisfies transport estimates with respect to every $L^p$-Kantorovich distance, $p\in[1,\infty]$. As an application we construct Brownian motions on time-dependent metric…
We generalize McCann's theorem of optimal transport to a submanifold setting and prove Michael-Simon-Sobolev inequalities for submanifolds in manifolds with lower bounds on intermediate Ricci curvatures. The results include a variant of the…
We study Poincar{\'e} inequalities and long-time behavior for diffusion processes on R^n under a variable curvature lower bound, in the sense of Bakry-Emery. We derive various estimates on the rate of convergence to equilibrium in L^1…
This is the lecture notes on the interplay between optimal transport and Riemannian geometry. On a Riemannian manifold, the convexity of entropy along optimal transport in the space of probability measures characterizes lower bounds of the…
In this essay, we discuss the notion of optimal transport on geodesic measure spaces and the associated (2-)Wasserstein distance. We then examine displacement convexity of the entropy functional on the space of probability measures. In…
We prove the equivalence of the curvature-dimension bounds of Lott-Sturm-Villani (via entropy and optimal transport) and of Bakry--\'Emery (via energy and \Gamma_2$-calculus) in complete generality for infinitesimally Hilbertian metric…
We introduce quantum optimal transport of states on tracial AF-$C^{*}$-algebras to study non-spatial transport of quantum information, and view it as the pointwise case of a general parametrised one. We define quantum optimal transport…
We survey work of Lott-Villani and Sturm on lower Ricci curvature bounds for metric-measure spaces.
