Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Type Processes on Wasserstein Space

Let P 2 be the space of probability measures on R d having finite second moment, and consider the Riemannian structure on P 2 induced by the intrinsic derivative on the L 2 -tangent space. By using…

Construction of the Parallel Transport in the Wasserstein Space

In this paper we study the problem of parallel transport in the Wasserstein spaces P2(R ). We show that the parallel transport exists along a class of curves whose velocity field is sufficiently…

Transport inequalities, gradient estimates, entropy and Ricci curvature

We present various characterizations of uniform lower bounds for the Ricci curvature of a smooth Riemannian manifold M in terms of convexity properties of the entropy (considered as a function on the…

Ricci curvature for metric-measure spaces via optimal transport

We dene a notion of a measured length space X having nonnegative N-Ricci curvature, for N 2 [1;1), or having1-Ricci curvature bounded below byK, forK2 R. The denitions are in terms of the…

THE GEOMETRY OF DISSIPATIVE EVOLUTION EQUATIONS: THE POROUS MEDIUM EQUATION

We show that the porous medium equation has a gradient flow structure which is both physically and mathematically natural. In order to convince the reader that it is mathematically natural, we show…

Derivative formulas in measure on Riemannian manifolds

We characterize the link of derivatives in measure, which are introduced in Albeverio, Kondratiev, and Röckner (C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris Sér I Math. 323 (1996) 1129–1134); Cardaliaguet (P.‐L. Lions…

On the inverse implication of Brenier-Mccann theorems and the structure of (P 2 (M),W 2 )

We do three things. First, we characterize the class of measures μ ∈P2(M) such that for any other ν ∈P2(M) there exists a unique optimal transport plan, and this plan is induced by a map. Second, we…
