L∞ estimates in optimal mass transportation
2016
We show that in any complete metric space the probability measures μ with compact and connected support are the ones having the property that the optimal transportation distance to any other probability measure ν living on the support of μ is bounded below by a positive function of the L∞ transportation distance between μ and ν. The function giving the lower bound depends only on the lower bound of the μ-measures of balls centered at the support of μ and on the cost function used in the optimal transport. We obtain an essentially sharp form of this function. In the case of strictly convex cost functions we show that a similar estimate holds on the level of optimal transport plans if and onl…
Existence of optimal transport maps in very strict CD(K,∞) -spaces
2018
We introduce a more restrictive version of the strict CD(K,∞) -condition, the so-called very strict CD(K,∞) -condition, and show the existence of optimal maps in very strict CD(K,∞) -spaces despite the possible lack of uniqueness of optimal plans. peerReviewed
