Wasserstein distance and put function

Let $\mathcal P$ be the set of probability distributions on $\mathbb R$ of finite first order, i.e. $\mu\in\mathcal P$ if $$\int_{\mathbb R} |t|\mu(dt)<\infty.$$ For $\mu\in\mathcal P$, define its put …

Should coffee machines be deconcentrated?

We model some region by convex and compact $E\subset \mathbb R^2$. $N\ge 1$ coffee machines are provided for the people living on $E$, of capacities $\alpha_1,\ldots, \alpha_N>0$. Assume the populatio …

Does this maximisation problem admit a finite upper bound?

Let $\mathcal M_2$ be the space of real $2\times 2$ matrices and $\mathcal S_2\subset \mathcal M_2$ be its subset consisting of positive semidefinite elements, i.e. $A\in \mathcal S_2$ iff $A$ is symm …

On the continuity with respect to the increasing convex order

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 in …

A variant of (discrete) optimal transport problem

Let $\alpha=(\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_m)\subset\mathbb R^m_+$ and $\beta=(\beta_1,\ldots,\beta_n)\subset\mathbb R^n_+$ be given and satisfy $$\sum_{i=1}^m \alpha_i =1 = \sum_{j=1}^n\beta_j.$$ Define $\P …
