Suppose that X is the subspace of the set of probability measures on the classical Wiener space $C[0,T]$, for some $T>0$, comprised of Gaussian measures.

In the finite-dimensional setting, the Wasserstein metric between two Gaussian random-variables has a very convenient form.... Are there any known analogues for the infinite dimensional setting? Especially, in the case of the classical Wiener space?
