English abstract:
In this talk we shall examine causal transports and the associated optimal transportation problem under the causality constraint (Pc) introduced by Rémi Lasalle. Loosely speaking, causal transports are a relaxation of adapted processes in the same sense as Kantorovich transport plans are the extension of Monge-type transport maps. We will establish a simple primal-dual picture of both (Pc) and the so-called bicausal transportation problem (whereby causality runs in both directions) in euclidean space or equiv. for discrete-time processes, and discuss the limit to continuous-time.
