Lecture Notes on Gradient Flows and Optimal Transport
Published 20 Sep 2010 in math.CA, math.AP, math.DG, and math.PR | (1009.3737v1)
Abstract: We present a short overview on the strongest variational formulation for gradient flows of geodesically $\lambda$-convex functionals in metric spaces, with applications to diffusion equations in Wasserstein spaces of probability measures. These notes are based on a series of lectures given by the second author for the Summer School "Optimal transportation: Theory and applications" in Grenoble during the week of June 22-26, 2009.
