Title: Semi-Discrete Optimal Transport and an application to a discrete metric gradient equality
Abstract: Semi-discrete optimal transport (SD-OT) couples an arbitrary probability measure to an empirical (finitely supported) target, and is widely used thanks to its efficient computability. In this talk, I introduce SD-OT on compact metric spaces—highlighting the dual potentials, Laguerre cells, and stability with respect to the base metric—and sketch some recent results of ours. Then, if time permits, I apply these tools obtain a gradient equality for a natural discretization of a functional defined on the space of probability measures. - 03 December 2025
