The transportation problem can be formalized as the problem of ?nding + ? the optimal paths to transport a measure ? onto a measure ? with the same mass. In contrast with the Monge-Kantorovich formalization, recent approaches model the branched structure of such supply networks by an energy functional whose essential feature is to favor wide roads. Given a ?ow ? in a tube or a road or a wire, the transportation cost per unit length ? is supposed to be proportional to ? with 0

Reviews for Optimal Transportation Networks
From the reviews: “The book aims to give a unified mathematical theory of branched transportation (or irrigation) networks. … The logical structure of the book makes it easy to learn the theory. … this book, in addition to being a great source of references is also extremely suitable for a study from scratch. The theory is presented while avoiding ... Read more
