$C_{loc}^{1,1}$ optimal pairs in the dual optimal transport problem for a Lorentzian cost along displacement interpolations

Abstract

We consider the optimal transportation problem on a globally hyperbolic spacetime with a cost function $c$, which corresponds to the optimal transportation problem on a complete Riemannian manifold where the cost function is given by the squared Riemannian distance. Building upon methods of weak KAM theory, we will establish the existence of $C_{loc}^{1,1}$ optimal pairs for the dual optimal transport problem for probability measures along displacement interpolations.
