TLDR
In this paper, it was shown that transport inequalities, similar to the one derived by M. Talagrand (1996, Geom. Funct. Anal. 6, 587-600) for the Gaussian measure, are implied by logarithmic Sobolev inequalities.

TL;DR: In this paper, a family of transportation costs between non-negative measures is introduced to obtain parabolic and reaction-diffusion equations with drift, subject to Dirichlet boundary condition.

Lagrangian calculus for nonsymmetric diffusion operators

TL;DR: In this article, lower bounds for the Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor of nonsymmetric diffusion operators were characterized by convexity of entropy on the Wasserstein space, and a curvature-dimension condition for general metric measure spaces together with a square integrable $1$-form was defined.

From large deviations to Wasserstein gradient flows in multiple dimensions

TL;DR: In this article, a new proof of the upper bound for the large deviation rate functional for the empirical distribution of independent Brownian particles with drift in arbitrary dimensions was presented, thereby generalising the result of Adams et al. to arbitrary dimensions.

Mean field approximations via log-concavity

TL;DR: A new approach to deriving quantitative mean field approximations for any probability measure P on R with density proportional to e, for f strongly concave is proposed, based primarily on functional inequalities and the notion of displacement convexity from optimal transport.

Polar Factorization and Monotone Rearrangement of Vector-Valued Functions

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that for every vector-valued function u Lp(X, p; Rd) there is a unique polar factorization u = V$.s, where $ is a convex function defined on R and s is a measure-preserving mapping from (x, p) into (Q, I. I), provided that u is nondegenerate.

The geometry of dissipative evolution equations: the porous medium equation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the porous medium equation has a gradient flow structure which is both physically and mathematically natural, and they use the intuition and the calculus of Riemannian geometry to quantify this asymptotic behavior.

Topological methods in hydrodynamics

TL;DR: A group theoretical approach to hydrodynamics is proposed in this article, where the authors consider the hydrodynamic geometry of diffeomorphism groups and the principle of least action implies that the motion of a fluid is described by geodesics on the group in the right-invariant Riemannian metric given by the kinetic energy.
