Geodesics in general metric spaces

  • Consider either defining L(w), for a general metric space, or linking to a page with the definition.
  • ``it is natural to think of Riemannian structure. It can be FORMALLY defined.
  • Remove the ``for p>1. The fact that geodesics are absolutely continuous curves is true for all p.
  • If you would like to include the p in the equation \int_0^1 |c'(t)|^p... you should introduce the W_p metric first.


Statement of Theorem

  • Consider changing the name of this section to ``dynamic formulation of Wasserstein distance.
  • Remove the requirement p>1; W_1 is also a geodesic space
  • Also, there is a small type-o in the continuity equation: it should be the divergence operator \nabla \cdot, instead of the gradient operator \nabla.
