[Mini-course] Curvature and Optimal transport | Professor Asuka Takatsu, Tokyo Metropolitan University

Speaker: Professor Asuka Takatsu, Tokyo Metropolitan University

Title: Curvature and Optimal transport

Abstract

In this series of lectures, I first review the notion of curvature (Gaussian curvature and Ricci curvature).
In particular, I recall some comparison theorems (Toponogov's triangle comparison theorem, Bishop--Gromov volume comparison theorem etc).Then I introduce a generalized notion of curvature in non-smooth spaces.
