When are Wasserstein spaces $CAT(\kappa)$?

Let $(X,d)$ be a complete and separable metric space and, for $1\leq p<\infty$, let $(\mathcal{P}_p(X,d),W_p)$ be the $p$-Wasserstein space on $(X,d)$. For which $p$ and $(X,d)$ is $(\mathcal{P}_p(...

An isoperimetric type of inequality in terms of Wasserstein distance/Optimal transport

Let $A \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a region having the same volume as an $n$ dimensional ball $B^n_R$ with radius $R$ centring at the origin. Isoperimetric inequality says: $ Vol_{n-1} \partial A \geq ...

Second-Order Taylor Expansion of Wasserstein Metric and Related Metrics

Suppose that we have a parametric distribution $P_{\theta}$, which is indexed by the parameter $\theta \in \mathbb{R}^d$. Let $W\{\cdot,\cdot\}$ be the Wasserstein Metric between two distributions. ...
