We show that a class of Poincar\'e-Wirtinger inequalities on bounded convex sets can be obtained by means of the dynamical formulation of Optimal Transport. This is a consequence of a more general result valid for convex sets, possibly…

In this work we consider an optimal transport problem with coefficients in a normed Abelian group $G$, and extract a purely intrinsic condition on $G$ that guarantees that the optimal transport (or the corresponding minimum filling) is not…

We study optimal transportation of measures on compact manifolds for costs defined from convex Lagrangians. We prove that optimal transportation can be interpolated by measured Lipschitz laminations, or geometric currents. The methods are…

Optimal Transport is a foundational mathematical theory that connects optimization, partial differential equations, and probability. It offers a powerful framework for comparing probability distributions and has recently become an important…

Motivated by the study of the propagation of convexity by semi-groups of stochastic differential equations and convex comparison between the distributions of solutions of two such equations, we study the comparison for the convex order…

We study a variant of the dynamical optimal transport problem in which the energy to be minimised is modulated by the covariance matrix of the distribution. Such transport metrics arise naturally in mean-field limits of certain ensemble…

We establish that solving an optimal transportation problem in which the source and target densities are defined on manifolds with different dimensions, is equivalent to solving a new nonlocal analog of the Monge-Amp\`ere equation,…

In this paper, we analyze the behavior of statistical complexity in several systems where two identical densities that travel in opposite direction cross each other. Besides the crossing between two Gaussian, rectangular and triangular…

Optimal transport (OT) is a powerful tool in mathematics and data science but faces severe computational and statistical challenges in high dimensions. We propose convex relaxation approaches based on marginal and cluster moment relaxations…

The emergence of congestion is a critical phenomenon in transport systems. Transport is organized along pathways abstracted by links, which connect different nodes as regions to form the network. The modeling of traffic has so far mainly…

Vector-valued Gaussian mixtures form an important special subset of vector-valued distributions. In general, vector-valued distributions constitute natural representations for physical entities, which can mutate or transit among alternative…

We consider linear elliptic equations in divergence form with stationary random coefficients of integrable correlations. We characterize the fluctuations of a macroscopic observable of a solution to relative order $\frac{d}{2}$, where $d$…

We establish a dimension-free, uniform-in-time reverse transportation inequality for Langevin dynamics with non-convex potentials. This inequality controls the R\'enyi divergence of arbitrary order between the process distributions starting…

The question of which costs admit unique optimizers in the Monge-Kantorovich problem of optimal transportation between arbitrary probability densities is investigated. For smooth costs and densities on compact manifolds, the only known…

Spaces of convex and concave functions appear naturally in theory and applications. For example, convex regression and log-concave density estimation are important topics in nonparametric statistics. In stochastic portfolio theory, concave…

This paper explores the connection between a generalized Riesz electric energy and norms on the set of probability measures defined in terms of duality. We derive functional inequalities linking these two notions, recovering and…

Optimal transport has recently been brought forward as a tool for modeling and efficiently solving a variety of flow problems, such as origin-destination problems and multi-commodity flow problems. Although the framework has shown to be…

Motivated by the computational difficulties incurred by popular deep learning algorithms for the generative modeling of temporal densities, we propose a cheap alternative which requires minimal hyperparameter tuning and scales favorably to…

In recent years, a range of measures of partial stochastic dominance have been introduced. These measures attempt to determine the extent to which one distribution is dominated by another. We assess these measures from intuitive, axiomatic,…

The article builds on several recent advances in the Monge-Kantorovich theory of mass transport which have -- among other things -- led to new and quite natural proofs for a wide range of geometric inequalities such as the ones formulated…
