Abstract:

We discuss the problem of the regularity in time of the map $t\mapsto T_t\in L^p(R^d,R^d;\sigma)$ where $T_t$ is a transport map (optimal or not) from a reference measure $\sigma$ to a measure $\mu_t$ which lies along an absolutely continuous curve $t\mapsto \mu_t$ in the space $(P_p({R^d}),W_p)$. We prove that in most cases such a map is no more than $p^{-1}$-Hölder continuous.

Keywords: Wasserstein distance, Monge-Ampère equation
