The optimal mass transport problem was formulated centuries ago, but only recently there has been a surge in its applications, particularly in functional inequalities, geometry, stochastic analysis, and numerical solutions for partial differential equations. Quantum optimal transport aims to extend this success story to non-commutative systems, where density operators replace probability measures. This brief review paper aims to describe the latest approaches, highlighting their advantages, disadvantages, and open mathematical problems relevant to applications.

Abstract
The optimal mass transport problem was formulated centuries ago, but only recently there has been a surge in its applications, particularly in functional inequalities, geometry, stochastic analysis, and numerical solutions for partial differential equations. Quantum optimal transport aims to extend this success story to non-commutative systems, where density operators replace probability measures. This brief review paper aims to describe the latest approaches, highlighting their advantages, disadvantages, and open mathematical problems relevant to applications.File in questo prodotto:
