Abstract

We study the convergence of divergence-regularized optimal transport as the regularization parameter vanishes. Sharp rates for general divergences including relative entropy or Lp regularization, general transport costs, and multimarginal problems are obtained. A novel methodology using quantization and martingale couplings is suitable for noncompact marginals and achieves, in particular, the sharp leading-order term of entropically regularized 2-Wasserstein distance for marginals with a finite [Formula: see text]-moment.
