This paper intents to present the state of art and recent developments of the optimal transportation theory with many marginals for a class of repulsive cost functions. We introduce some aspects of the Density Functional Theory (DFT) from a mathematical point of view, and revisit the theory of optimal transport from its perspective. Moreover, in the last three sections, we describe some recent and new theoretical and numerical results obtained for the Coulomb cost, the repulsive harmonic cost and the determinant cost.

We investigate a mathematical theory for the erosion of sediment which begins with the study of a non-linear, parabolic, weighted 4-Laplace equation on a rectangular domain corresponding to a base segment of an extended landscape. Imposing natural boundary conditions, we show that the equation admits entropy solutions and prove regularity and uniqueness of weak solutions when they exist. We then investigate a particular class of weak solutions studied in previous work of the first author and produce numerical simulations of these solutions. After introducing an optimal transportation problem for the sediment flow, we show that this class of weak solutions implements the optimal transportation of the sediment.
We consider the Schr{o}dinger equation with a nondispersive logarithmic nonlinearity and a repulsive harmonic potential. For a suitable range of the coefficients, there exist two positive stationary solutions, each one generating a continuous family of solitary waves. These solutions are Gaussian, and turn out to be orbitally unstable. We also discuss the notion of ground state in this setting: for any natural definition, the set of ground states is empty.
In this article, we study the strong well-posedness, stability and optimal control of an incompressible magneto-viscoelastic fluid model in two dimensions. The model consists of an incompressible Navier--Stokes equation for the velocity field, an evolution equation for the deformation tensor, and a gradient flow equation for the magnetization vector. First, we prove that the model under consideration posseses a global strong solution in a suitable functional framework. Second, we derive stability estimates with respect to an external magnetic field. Based on the stability estimates we use the external magnetic field as the control to minimize a cost functional of tracking-type. We prove existence of an optimal control and derive first-order necessary optimality conditions. Finally, we consider a second optimal control problem, where the external magnetic field, which represents the control, is generated by a finite number of fixed magnetic field coils.

In this paper, we obtain some regularities of the free boundary in optimal transportation with the quadratic cost. Our first result is about the $C^{1,alpha}$ regularity of the free boundary for optimal partial transport between convex domains for densities $f, g$ bounded from below and above. When $f, g in C^alpha$, and $partialOmega, partialOmega^*in C^{1,1}$ are far apart, by adopting our recent results on boundary regularity of Monge-Amp`ere equations cite{CLW1}, our second result shows that the free boundaries are $C^{2,alpha}$. As an application, in the last we also obtain these regularities of the free boundary in an optimal transport problem with two separate targets.
We investigate the large-distance asymptotics of optimal Hardy weights on $mathbb Z^d$, $dgeq 3$, via the super solution construction. For the free discrete Laplacian, the Hardy weight asymptotic is the familiar $frac{(d-2)^2}{4}|x|^{-2}$ as $|x|toinfty$. We prove that the inverse-square behavior of the optimal Hardy weight is robust for general elliptic coefficients on $mathbb Z^d$: (1) averages over large sectors have inverse-square scaling, (2), for ergodic coefficients, there is a pointwise inverse-square upper bound on moments, and (3), for i.i.d. coefficients, there is a matching inverse-square lower bound on moments. The results imply $|x|^{-4}$-scaling for Rellich weights on $mathbb Z^d$. Analogous results are also new in the continuum setting. The proofs leverage Greens function estimates rooted in homogenization theory.
