Title: Optimal transportation and applications
Description: Leading researchers in the field of Optimal Transportation, with different views and perspectives, contribute to this Summer School volume: Monge-Ampère and Monge-Kantorovich theory, shape optimization and mass transportation are linked, among others, to applications in fluid mechanics granular material physics and statistical mechanics, emphasizing the attractiveness of the subject from both a theoretical and applied point of view. The volume is designed to become a guide to researchers willing to enter into this challenging and useful theory.
Subjects: Mathematical optimization, Congresses, Transportation problems, Transportation problems (Programming), Mathematics, Differential equations, partial, Discrete groups, Global differential geometry, Distribution (Probability theory)
