Abstract:

We investigate the synthetic metric spacetime structure of the sub-Lorentzian Heisenberg group and we study the optimal transport problem in this space. The sub-Lorentzian version of Brenier's theorem is established in this setting. Finally, we provide examples of optimal transport maps and derive a sub-Lorentzian Monge-Ampère equation.
