Taking points uniformly inside a general finite geometric domain

For an ellipse, one can rescale the coordinates so that the region becomes a disk and then sample in the way you mentioned. However, in general sampling efficiently from irregular regions (or distribu …

Probabilities of four points being in convex/deltoid configurations

This is not an answer, but was too long to be a comment. The answer will depend on the probability distribution that the points are drawn from. In particular, without even considering the minimum span …

Regularity of transport map

This is an open question. The difficulty is that Monge's cost function is very degenerate, so doesn't satisfy the assumptions of the standard regularity theory of optimal transport. The first difficul …

Approximation of Wasserstein distance between $p_\theta$ and $p_{\theta + d\theta}$

With regard to your first question, one such result shows that under some conditions on $q$, the following inequality holds for all p: $$W_2(p,q) \leq \sqrt{\frac{ KL(p\parallel q)}\rho}$$ This is a …
