Question (Existence of optimal maps)
When is the/an optimal plan induced by a map? (σ = (id , T )# µ
for some map T : X → X )
The usual steps in the proof are (given two measures
µ, ν ∈ P(X )):
1
Prove that any optimal plan from µ to ν is induced by a map.
2
Linear combinations of optimal plans are optimal.
3
The combination of two different optimal maps is not a map.
Hence there is only one optimal map.

Existence of optimal maps
The existence of optimal maps for the quadratic cost has been
obtained for example by
Brenier (1991) in Rn with µ ≪ Ln . (Earlier steps by Brenier
1987 and Knott & Smith 1984)
McCann (1995) in Rn with µ(E ) = 0 for n − 1-rectifiable E .
Gangbo & McCann (1996) in Rn with µ(E ) = 0 for all
c − c-hypersurfaces E .
McCann (2001) for Riemannian manifolds M with µ ≪ vol.
Gigli (2011) for Riemannian manifolds M there exists an
optimal map from µ to every µ if and only if µ(E ) = 0 for all
c − c-hypersurfaces E .

The space (P(X ), W2) for (X , d ) geodesic
(All the geodesics in this talk are constant speed geodesics
parametrized by [0, 1].)
If (X , d) is geodesic, then (P(X ), W2 ) is geodesic.
A geodesic (µt ) ⊂ Geo(P(X )) can be realized as a probability
measure π ∈ P(Geo(X )) in the sense that for all t ∈ [0, 1] we
have (et )# π = (µt ).

Denote by OptGeo(µ0 , µ1 ) ⊂ P(Geo(X )) the set of all π for
which (et )# π is a geodesic connecting µ0 and µ1 . The space
OptGeo(µ0 , µ1 ) has the most information on transports between
µ0 and µ1 : Usually neither of the maps
OptGeo(µ0 , µ1 ) → Geo(P(X )) : π 7→ (t 7→ (et )# π),
OptGeo(µ0 , µ1 ) → P(X × X )) : π 7→ (e0 , e1 )# π
is injective.
Moreover, a geodesic (µt )1t=0 does not (in general) define an
optimal plan σ, nor does σ define (µt )1t=0 .

Theorem (Otto & Villani 2000, Cordero-Erausquin, McCann &
Schmuckenschläger 2001, von Renesse & Sturm 2005)
For any smooth connected Riemannian manifold M and any
K ∈ R the following properties are equivalent:
1
Ric(M) ≥ K in the sense that Ricx (v , v ) ≥ K |v |2 for all
x ∈ M and v ∈ Tx M.
Entvol is K -convex on P2 (M).
R
Here Entvol (ρvol) = M ρ log ρ dvol and K -convexity of Entvol on
P2 (M) means that along every geodesic (µt )1t=0 ⊂ P2 (M) we have

Entvol (µs ) ≤ (1 − s)Entvol (µ0 ) + sEntvol (µ1 )

Definition (Sturm (2006))
(X , d, m) is a CD(K , ∞)-space (K ∈ R) if between any two
absolutely continuous measures there exists a geodesic
(µt ) ∈ Geo(P(X
R )) along which the entropy
Entm (ρm) = ρ log ρ dm is K -convex:

Branching geodesics
One problematic feature of the definition is that CD(K , ∞)-spaces
include also spaces with branching geodesics; like (R2 , || · ||∞ , L2 ).
We say that two geodesics γ 1 6= γ 2 , branch if there exists
t0 ∈ (0, 1) so that γt1 = γt2 for all t ∈ [0, t0 ].
γ01 = γ02

γt10 = γt20

A space where there are no branching geodesics is called
non-branching.

Not only does the new geodesic satisfy the K -convexity inequality
between any three times 0 < t1 < s < t2 < 1, but also the
measures along the geodesic have bounded densities (under some
assumptions on the initial and final measures). This is true for
instance if we start with two measures µ0 and µ1 having bounded
densities and bounded supports.

In CD(K , N)-spaces, minimizing the (Rényi) entropy X ρ1−1/N dm

However, if one of the measures is singular with respect to m, we
get the correct CD(K , N)-bounds when taking intermediate points
towards this measure.

Theorem (R. & Sturm, 2012 (preprint))
Strong CD(K , ∞)-spaces are essentially non-branching. In

Corollary (of essential non-branching and Gigli’s result)
There exist optimal transport maps in strong CD(K , ∞)-spaces
between µ0 , µ1 ≪ m.
Definition
A space (X , d, m) is called essentially non-branching if for every
µ0 , µ1 ∈ P2 (X ) that are absolutely continuous with respect to m
we have that any π ∈ OptGeo(µ0 , µ1 ) is concentrated on a set of
non-branching geodesics. (Meaning that π(Γ) = 1 for some
Γ ⊂ Geo(X ) so that there are no two branching geodesics in Γ.)

Consider the curve Γ ∈ P(Geo(X )) between the marginals
corresponding to the part of the measure which we want to
redistribute along which Entm is displacement convex. We have

This is why ||ρ1/2||∞ ≤ max{||ρ0 ||∞ , ||ρ1 ||∞ }.
The CD(K , ∞) condition gives a new well spread midpoint for the
high-density part of the old midpoint.

Taking a weighted combination of this new midpoint measure and
the old one lowers the entropy.

Therefore at the minimum of the entropy among the midpoints we

the bound is preserved.
