Dynamic characterization of barycentric optimal transport problems and their martingale relaxation
Abstract
We extend the Benamou-Brenier formula from classical optimal transport to weak optimal transport and show that the barycentric optimal transport problem studied by Gozlan and Juillet has a dynamic analogue. We also investigate a martingale relaxation of this problem, and relate it to the martingale Benamou-Brenier formula of Backhoff-Veraguas, Beiglb\"ock, Huesmann and K\"allblad.
