Sharp comparisons between sliced and standard -Wasserstein distances
Guillaume Carlier, Alessio Figalli, Quentin Mérigot +1
Sliced Wasserstein distances are widely used in practice as a computationally efficient alternative to Wasserstein distances in high dimensions. In this paper, motivated by theoret…

Sharp Quantitative Stability for the Prékopa-Leindler and Borell-Brascamp-Lieb Inequalities
Alessio Figalli, Peter van Hintum, Marius Tiba
The Borell-Brascamp-Lieb inequality is a classical extension of the Prékopa-Leindler inequality, which in turn is a functional counterpart of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality. The st…

Improved stability versions of the Prékopa-Leindler inequality
Alessio Figalli, João P. G. Ramos
We consider the problem of stability for the Prékopa-Leindler inequality. Exploiting properties of the transport map between radially decreasing functions and a suitable functional…
