Regularity of Optimal Transportation between Spaces with Different Dimensions

چکیده

We study the regularity of solutions to an optimal transportation problem in which the dimension of the source is larger than that of the target. We prove that, unless the cost c has a very special form, (in which case we show that the problem can be reduced to an optimal transportation problem between equal dimensional spaces), there are smooth marginals for which the optimal map is discontinuous. If c does not have this special form, we identify sufficient conditions on the cost and the marginals to ensure that the optimal map is continuous, in the case where the target is one dimensional.

Arens regularity of bilinear forms and unital Banach module spaces

Assume that $A$‎, ‎$B$ are Banach algebras and that $m:Atimes Brightarrow B$‎, ‎$m^prime:Atimes Arightarrow B$ are bounded bilinear mappings‎. ‎We study the relationships between Arens regularity of $m$‎, ‎$m^prime$ and the Banach algebras $A$‎, ‎$B$‎. ‎For a Banach $A‎$‎-bimodule $B$‎, ‎we show that $B$ factors with respect to $A$ if and only if $B^{**}$ is unital as an $A^{**}‎$‎-module‎. ‎Le...

Continuity and injectivity of optimal maps for non-negatively cross-curved costs∗

Consider transportation of one distribution of mass onto another, chosen to optimize the total expected cost, where cost per unit mass transported from x to y is given by a smooth function c(x, y). If the source density f(x) is bounded away from zero and infinity in an open region U ′ ⊂ R, and the target density f−(y) is bounded away from zero and infinity on its support V ⊂ R, which is strongl...

Partial Regularity Results in Optimal Transportation

This note describes some recent results on the regularity of optimal transport maps. As we shall see, in general optimal maps are not globally smooth, but they are so outside a “singular set” of measure zero. 1. The optimal transportation problem The optimal transportation problem, whose origin dates back to Monge [19], aims to find a way to transport a distribution of mass from one place to an...

Optimal elliptic regularity at the crossing of a material interface and a Neumann boundary edge

We investigate optimal elliptic regularity of anisotropic div–grad operators in three dimensions at the crossing of a material interface and an edge of the spatial domain on the Neumann boundary part within the scale of Sobolev spaces.

The Monge Problem in Geodesic Spaces

We address the Monge problem in metric spaces with a geodesic distance: (X, d) is a Polish non branching geodesic space. We show that we can reduce the transport problem to 1-dimensional transport problems along geodesics. We introduce an assumption on the transport problem π which implies that the conditional probabilities of the first marginal on each geodesic are continuous. It is known that...
