Optimal transport has found numerous applications across data science, many of which require differentiating the optimal transport map with respect to the underlying probability densities in the Fr\'echet sense. In this work, we show that…
Optimal transport (OT) aims to find a map $T$ that transports mass from one probability measure to another while minimizing a cost function. Recently, neural OT solvers have gained popularity in high dimensional biological applications such…
Enzyme costs play a major role in the choice of metabolic routes, both in evolution and bioengineering. Given desired fluxes, necessary enzyme levels can be estimated based on known rate laws and on a principle of minimal enzyme cost. With…
In this paper, we address the numerical solution to the multimarginal optimal transport (MMOT) with pairwise costs. MMOT, as a natural extension from the classical two-marginal optimal transport, has many important applications including…
Normalizing Flows (NF) are powerful likelihood-based generative models that are able to trade off between expressivity and tractability to model complex densities. A now well established research avenue leverages optimal transport (OT) and…
We rephrase Monge's optimal transportation (OT) problem with quadratic cost--via a Monge-Amp\`ere equation--as an infinite-dimensional optimization problem, which is in fact a convex problem when the target is a log-concave measure with…
In its most general form, the optimal transport problem is an infinite-dimensional optimization problem, yet certain notable instances admit closed-form solutions. We identify the common source of this tractability as \textit{symmetry} and…
We introduce a natural online allocation problem that connects several of the most fundamental problems in online optimization. Let $M$ be an $n$-point metric space. Consider a resource that can be allocated in arbitrary fractions to the…
Multi-marginal optimal transport (MOT) is a generalization of optimal transport to multiple marginals. Optimal transport has evolved into an important tool in many machine learning applications, and its multi-marginal extension opens up for…
We present a numerical method to solve the optimal transport problem with a quadratic cost when the source and target measures are periodic probability densities. This method is based on a numerical resolution of the corresponding…
This paper deals with the existence of optimal transport maps for some optimal transport problems with a convex but non strictly convex cost. We give a decomposition strategy to address this issue. As part of our strategy, we have to treat…
We investigate the optimal transport problem between probability measures when the underlying cost function is understood to satisfy a least action principle, also known as a Lagrangian cost. These generalizations are useful when connecting…
We study online convex optimization with switching costs, a practically important but also extremely challenging problem due to the lack of complete offline information. By tapping into the power of machine learning (ML) based optimizers,…
This paper addresses the problem of estimating entropy-regularized optimal transport (EOT) maps with squared-Euclidean cost between source and target measures that are subGaussian. In the case that the target measure is compactly supported…
We develop an $\e$-regularity theory at the boundary for a general class of Monge-Amp\`ere type equations arising in optimal transportation. As a corollary we deduce that optimal transport maps between H\"older densities supported on $C^2$…
Optimal transport (OT) is a powerful geometric tool used to compare and align probability measures following the least effort principle. Despite its widespread use in machine learning (ML), OT problem still bears its computational burden,…
We approach the problem of constructing a quantum analogue of the immensely fruitful classical transport cost theory of Monge from a new angle. Going back to the original motivations, by which the transport is a bilinear function of a mass…
Optimal transport (OT) based data analysis is often faced with the issue that the underlying cost function is (partially) unknown. This paper is concerned with the derivation of distributional limits for the empirical OT value when the cost…
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,…
The empirical optimal transport (OT) cost between two probability measures from random data is a fundamental quantity in transport based data analysis. In this work, we derive novel guarantees for its convergence rate when the involved…
