seminar: Mouvements of measures for optimal transportation problems

speaker: Giuseppe Buttazzo (Università di Pisa)

abstract: Starting from the work of Brenier where a dynamic formulation for optimal transportation problems was proposed, we investigate minimum problems of the form $$\min\Big\{\int01 \Psi(\sigma)\,dt\ :\ -{\rm div\,}\sigma=f\Big\}$$ where $\Psi$ is a l.s.c. functional defined on measures. As an application we study the mouvement of a measure $\rhot$ which satisfies the continuity equation $$\partialt\rho+{\rm div}x(\rho v)=0$$ and minimizes some suitable cost functional $F(\rho,v)$ assuming fixed values $ \rho{t=0}=\rho0$ and $\rho{t=1}=\rho1$. Some numerical computations are also provided, following the scheme proposed by Benamou and Brenier.
