These notes constitute a sort of Crash Course in Optimal Transport Theory. The different features of the problem of Monge-Kantorovitch are treated, starting from convex duality issues. The main properties of space of probability measures endowed with the distances $W_p$ induced by optimal transport are detailed. The key tools to put in relation optimal transport and PDEs are provided.

  1. Multiscaling in Wasserstein Spaces

    math.NA 2025-09 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A multiscale framework for probability measures in Wasserstein spaces is developed, including a refinement operator preserving geodesic structure and an optimality number for detecting non-geodesic dynamics across scales.
