Z. Badreddine - Optimal transportation problem and MCP property on sub-Riemannian structures

This presentation is devoted to the study of mass transportation on sub-Riemannian geometry. In order to obtain existence and uniqueness of optimal transport maps, the first relevant method to consider is the one used by Figalli and Rifford which is based on the local semiconcavity of the
