Minimizing flows for the monge-kantorovich problem

In this work, we formulate a new minimizing flow for the optimal mass transport (Monge--Kantorovich) problem. We study certain properties of the flow, including weak solutions as well as short- and long-term existence. Optimal transport has found a number of applications, including econometrics, flu...

Zusammenfassung:In this work, we formulate a new minimizing flow for the optimal mass transport (Monge--Kantorovich) problem. We study certain properties of the flow, including weak solutions as well as short- and long-term existence. Optimal transport has found a number of applications, including econometrics, fluid dynamics, cosmology, image processing, automatic control, transportation, statistical physics, shape optimization, expert systems, and meteorology.
