A transport inequality on the sphere obtained by mass transport

Dario Cordero-Erausquin

Vol. 268 (2014), No. 1, 23–31
Abstract

Using McCann’s transportation map, we establish a transport inequality on compact manifolds with positive Ricci curvature. This inequality contains the sharp spectral comparison estimates.

Keywords
transport inequality, Ricci curvature, optimal mass transport
