Topics in the Duality Theory for Mass Transfer Problems

  • Chapter
Distributions with given Marginals and Moment Problems

Abstract

Duality theory for nontopological versions of mass transfer problem extending the classical Monge-Kantorovich problem is developed. Applications to dynamic optimization and approximation theory are outlined.
