First-order -expansion for entropic optimal transport with non-degenerate costs

Luca Nenna, Brendan Pass, Paul Pegon +1

Entropy-regularized optimal transport (EOT) has become a key tool in optimal transport, providing both theoretical insight and efficient computation via the Sinkhorn algorithm. We…

Remarks on multi-period martingale optimal transport

Brendan Pass, Joshua Hiew

We study the structural properties of multi-period martingale optimal transport (MOT). We develop new tools to address these problems, and use them to prove several uniqueness and…

Characterizing and computing solutions to regularized semi-discrete optimal transport via an ordinary differential equation

Luca Nenna, Daniyar Omarov, Brendan Pass

This paper investigates the semi-discrete optimal transport (OT) problem with entropic regularization. We characterize the solution using a governing, well-posed ordinary different…

Data denoising with self consistency, variance maximization, and the Kantorovich dominance

Joshua Zoen-Git Hiew, Tongseok Lim, Brendan Pass +1

We introduce a new framework for data denoising, partially inspired by martingale optimal transport. For a given noisy distribution (the data), our approach involves finding the cl…

An ordinary differential equation for entropic optimal transport and its linearly constrained variants

Joshua Zoen-Git Hiew, Luca Nenna, Brendan Pass

We characterize the solution to the entropically regularized optimal transport problem by a well-posed ordinary differential equation (ODE). Our approach works for discrete margina…

Dimension Reduction in Martingale Optimal Transport: Geometry and Robust Option Pricing

Joshua Zoen-Git Hiew, Tongseok Lim, Brendan Pass +1

This paper addresses the problem of robust option pricing within the framework of Vectorial Martingale Optimal Transport (VMOT). We investigate the geometry of VMOT solutions for $…
