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.

IAS/ School of Science Joint Lecture - Drag on a Penetrable Disk in a Superfluid
Abstract The motion of a body through a superfluid can generate phenomena distinct from a normal viscous fluid. This includes the absence of drag below a critical body speed with the shedding o...
