The Wasserstein space of stochastic processes

D Bartl, M Beiglböck, G Pammer - Journal of the European Mathematical …, 2024 - ems.press

Weak transport for non‐convex costs and model‐independence in a fixed‐income market

B Acciaio, M Beiglböck, G Pammer - Mathematical Finance, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
We consider a model‐independent pricing problem in a fixed‐income market and show that
it leads to a weak optimal transport problem as introduced by Gozlan et al. We use this to …

A novel notion of barycenter for probability distributions based on optimal weak mass transport

E Cazelles, F Tobar, J Fontbona - Advances in Neural …, 2021 - proceedings.neurips.cc
We introduce weak barycenters of a family of probability distributions, based on the recently
developed notion of optimal weak transport of mass by Gozlan et al.(2017) and Backhoff …

A note on the adapted weak topology in discrete time

G Pammer - Electronic Communications in Probability, 2024 - projecteuclid.org
The adapted weak topology is an extension of the weak topology for stochastic processes
designed to adequately capture properties of underlying filtrations. With the recent work of …

The Knothe-Rosenblatt distance and its induced topology

M Beiglböck, G Pammer, A Posch - arxiv preprint arxiv:2312.16515, 2023 - arxiv.org
A basic and natural coupling between two probabilities on $\mathbb R^ N $ is given by the
