Quantitative Stability of the Pushforward Operation by an Optimal Transport Map

Abstract

We study the quantitative stability of the mapping that to a measure associates its pushforward measure by a fixed (non-smooth) optimal transport map. We exhibit a tight H\"older-behavior for this operation under minimal assumptions. Our proof essentially relies on a new bound that quantifies the size of the singular sets of a convex and Lipschitz continuous function on a bounded domain.
