Let $X$ and $Y$ be metric spaces, and let $c:X\times Y\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a nonnegative function which we refer to as a cost. For any $\phi:X\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and $\psi:Y\rightarrow \...

I'm reading a monograph that considers the following problem: $$\inf_{z(t) \in C^1} \int_0^1 c\bigg(\frac{dz(t)}{dt}\bigg) dt\\ z(0) = x, z(1) = y$$ Here $c$ is a convex function, $z(t)$ are paths ...
