Optimal transport maps play fundamental roles in many engineering and medical fields. Due to the highly non-linear nature of the Monge-Amepre equation, the computation of optimal transport maps is very challenging. In this talk, we briefly introduce the concepts and theories of optimal transportation, then explain several algorithms based on Alexandrov theory and Minkowski theory and geometric variational theory. Some applications will be briefly introduced as well.
