Dynamical formulation of the 2-Wasserstein distance for *discrete* matrix-valued measures
TL;DR: I want to find a definition generalizing "$t \mapsto \frac{1}{m} \sum_{k = 1}^{m} \delta_{x_k(t)}$ is a Wasserstein gradient flow" to matrix-valued probability measures.
Let $(X, d)$ ...

Is there a general guideline for minimizing $\sup_{y\in H}F(\;\cdot\;,y)$?
Let $H$ be a $\mathbb R$-Hilbert space and $F:H^2\to\mathbb R$. Is there a general guideline for minimizing $\sup_{y\in H}F(\;\cdot\;,y)$?
Since the question is rather abstract, feel free to impose ...

How can we solve this kind of saddle point problem?
I'm trying to solve a saddle point problem of the following form: Let
$(E,\mathcal E,\lambda)$ be a measure space;
$p$ be a probability density on $(E,\mathcal E,\lambda)$ and $\mu:=p\lambda$
$W$ be ...

Can one estimate the distribution of eigenvalues of a matrix by its Cauchy/Stieltje transform?
Given a real symmetric $n$ dimensional matrix $A$, with eigenvalues $\lambda_i$ I am defining its Cauchy transform as the function, $f_A(z) = \sum_i \frac{1}{z-\lambda_i}\,$
Is there any information ...
