For $p\ge 1$, let $\mathcal P_p(\mathbb R)$ be the set of probability measures on $\mathbb R$ of finite $p^{\rm th}$ moment. Denote by $W_p$ the Wasserstein metric of order $p$ and by $\preceq$ the ...

Let $p_1$ and $p_2$ be two probability densities and $X_i\sim N(\mu_i,\Sigma_i)$. Write $w(X)\sim p$ if the law of the random variable $w(X)$ has a density equal to $p$. For general densities $p_i$, ...

Let $X=\mathbb{R}^n$; I am also interested in the general case $X$ is a metric space but for simplicity let's focus on Euclidean space. Let $\mathcal{P}(X)$ denote the space of Borel probability ...
