Time: Sep. 10 (Wed.) 14:20-15:10
Venue: M212, Gongguan Campus, NTNU
Dr. Kai-Hsiang Wang
Visiting scholar of National Center for Theoretical Sciences
In the first part of this talk, I will give an introduction to optimal transport (OT) theory, focusing on the Euclidean setting with the quadratic cost. This will include Kantorovich’s duality and Brenier’s theorem about OT maps. In the second part, I will give two structurally similar proofs of the classical isoperimetric inequality, one by the OT and the other by the ABP maximum principle.
