This paper is concerned with six variational problems and their mutual connections: The quadratic Monge-Kantorovich optimal transport, the Schr\"odinger problem, Brenier's relaxed model for incompressible fluids, the so-called Br\"odinger…
The optimal transport problem has recently developed into a powerful framework for various applications in estimation and control. Many of the recent advances in the theory and application of optimal transport are based on regularizing the…
We take a new look at the relation between the optimal transport problem and the Schr\"{o}dinger bridge problem from the stochastic control perspective. We show that the connections are richer and deeper than described in existing…
We study the least-energy way to reshape a probability distribution when motion is constrained to a horizontal bundle, that is, optimal transport and distribution steering in sub-Riemannian geometry, motivated by density control over…
We consider an optimal transport problem on the unit simplex whose solutions are given by gradients of exponentially concave functions and prove two main results. First, we show that the optimal transport is the large deviation limit of a…
The \emph{Schr\"odinger problem} is obtained by replacing the mean square distance with the relative entropy in the Monge-Kantorovich problem. It was first addressed by Schr\"odinger as the problem of describing the most likely evolution of…
We study a semimartingale optimal transport problem interpolating between the Schr\"odinger bridge and the stretched Brownian motion associated with the Bass solution of the Skorokhod embedding problem. The cost combines an entropy term on…
We establish large deviations for dynamical Schr\"{o}dinger problems driven by perturbed Brownian motions when the noise parameter tends to zero. Our results show that Schr\"{o}dinger bridges charge exponentially small masses outside the…
We describe some analogy between optimal transport and the Schr\"odinger problem where the transport cost is replaced by an entropic cost with a reference path measure. A dual Kantorovich type formulation and a Benamou-Brenier type…
We develop a mathematical theory of entropic regularisation of unbalanced optimal transport problems. Focusing on static formulation and relying on the formalism developed for the unregularised case, we show that unbalanced optimal…
Entropic Optimal Transport (EOT), also referred to as the Schr\"odinger problem, seeks to find a random processes with prescribed initial/final marginals and with minimal relative entropy with respect to a reference measure. The relative…
We study generalizations of the Schr\"odinger problem in statistical mechanics in two directions: when the density is constrained at more than two times, and when the joint law of the initial and final positions for the particles is…
This paper exploit the equivalence between the Schr\"odinger Bridge problem and the entropy penalized optimal transport in order to find a different approach to the duality, in the spirit of optimal transport. This approach results in a…
This paper introduces a dynamic formulation of divergence-regularized optimal transport with weak targets on the path space. In our formulation, the classical relative entropy penalty is replaced by a general convex divergence, and terminal…
Replacing positivity constraints by an entropy barrier is popular to approximate solutions of linear programs. In the special case of the optimal transport problem, this technique dates back to the early work of Schr\"odinger. This approach…
We consider the problem of steering an initial probability density for the state vector of a linear system to a final one, in finite time, using minimum energy control. In the case where the dynamics correspond to an integrator ($\dot x(t)…
We study the regularity properties of the minimisers of entropic optimal transport providing a natural analogue of the $\varepsilon$-regularity theory of quadratic optimal transport in the entropic setting. More precisely, we show that if…
We study the convergence of entropically regularized optimal transport to optimal transport. The main result is concerned with the convergence of the associated optimizers and takes the form of a large deviations principle quantifying the…
We study the entropic regularizations of optimal transport problems under suitable summability assumptions on the point-wise transport cost. These summability assumptions already appear in the literature. However, we show that the weakest…
We establish the stability of solutions to the entropically regularized optimal transport problem with respect to the marginals and the cost function. The result is based on the geometric notion of cyclical invariance and inspired by the…
