The Sinkhorn algorithm, parabolic optimal transport and geometric Monge–Ampère equations

We show that the discrete Sinkhorn algorithm—as applied in the setting of Optimal Transport on a compact manifold—converges to the solution of a fully non-linear parabolic PDE of Monge–Ampère type, in a large-scale limit. The latter evolution equation has previously appeared in different contexts (e...
