We present now some further optimizationproblems related to mass transportationtheory.Given a metric space (X, d) and two probabilitiesf + and f − on X, it is convenientto denote by MK(f + , f − , d) the minimumvalue of the transportation cost in theMonge-Kantorovich problem, that isMK(f + , f − , d) = min{ ∫ d(x, y) dγ(x, y)X×X: γ has marginals f + , f −} .We will consider some data as fixed and wewill let the remaining ones vary in some suitableadmissible classes; the goal is to optimizesome given total costs which include aterm related to the mass transportation.26
