The Monge--Kantorovich problem, the Schur--Horn theorem, and the diffeomorphism group of the annulus
Anthony M. Bloch, Tudor S. Ratiu
First, we analyze the discrete Monge--Kantorovich problem, linking it with the minimization problem of linear functionals over adjoint orbits. Second, we consider its generalizatio…

On the Local Controllability of a Class of Quadratic Systems
Moise R. Mouyebe, Anthony M. Bloch
The local controllability of a rich class of affine nonlinear control systems with nonhomogeneous quadratic drift and constant control vector fields is analyzed. The interest in th…

Symmetric Discrete Optimal Control and Deep Learning
Anthony M. Bloch, Peter E. Crouch, Tudor S. Ratiu
We analyze discrete optimal control problems and their connection with back propagation and deep learning. We consider in particular the symmetric representation of the discrete ri…
