| We study the problem of transporting one probability measure to another via an autonomous velocity field. We rely on tools from the theory of optimal transport. In one space-dimension, we solve a linear homogeneous functional equation to construct a suitable autonomous vector field that realizes the (unique) monotone transport map as the time-1 map of its flow. Generically, this vector field can be chosen to be Lipschitz continuous. We then use Sudakov's disintegration approach to deal with the multi-dimensional case by reducing it to a family of one-dimensional problems. This talk is based on a joint work with Xavier Fernández-Real. |
