متن کاملOptical Design of Single Reflector Systems and the Monge–kantorovich Mass Transfer Problem
We consider the problem of designing a reflector that transforms a spherical wave front with a given intensity into an output front illuminating a prespecified region of the far-sphere with prescribed intensity. In earlier approaches, it was shown that in the geometric optics approximation this problem is reduced to solving a second order nonlinear elliptic partial differential equation of Mong...
متن کاملOn Fluid mechanics formulation of Monge-Kantorovich Mass Transfer Problem
The Monge-Kantorovich mass transfer problem is equivalently formulated as an optimal control prblem for the mass transport equation. The equivalency of the two problems is establish using the Lax-Hopf formula and the optimal control theory arguments. Also, it is shown that the optimal solution to the equivalent control problem is given in a gradient form in terms of the potential solution to th...

We recall the history of the transportation (Kantorovich) metric and the Monge–Kantorovich problem. We also describe several little-known applications: the first one concerns the theory of decreasing sequences of partitions (tower of measures and iterated metric), the second one relates to Ornstein's theory of Bernoulli automorphisms (¯ d-metric), and the third one is the formulation of the str...
