Entropic approximation for multi-dimensional martingale optimal transport

Abstract

We study the existing algorithms that solve the multidimensional martingale optimal transport. Then we provide a new algorithm based on entropic regularization and Newton's method. Then we provide theoretical convergence rate results and we check that this algorithm performs better through numerical experiments. We also give a simple way to deal with the absence of convex ordering among the marginals. Furthermore, we provide a new universal bound on the error linked to entropy.
