    Optimal Entropy-Transport problems and a new Hellinger–Kantorovich distance between positive measures
    (Berlin ; Heidelberg : Springer, 2017) Liero, Matthias; Mielke, Alexander; Savaré, Giuseppe
    We develop a full theory for the new class of Optimal Entropy-Transport problems between nonnegative and finite Radon measures in general topological spaces. These problems arise quite naturally by relaxing the marginal constraints typical of Optimal Transport problems: given a pair of finite measures (with possibly different total mass), one looks for minimizers of the sum of a linear transport functional and two convex entropy functionals, which quantify in some way the deviation of the marginals of the transport plan from the assigned measures. As a powerful application of this theory, we study the particular case of Logarithmic Entropy-Transport problems and introduce the new Hellinger–Kantorovich distance between measures in metric spaces. The striking connection between these two seemingly far topics allows for a deep analysis of the geometric properties of the new geodesic distance, which lies somehow between the well-known Hellinger–Kakutani and Kantorovich–Wasserstein distances.

    A coarse‐grained electrothermal model for organic semiconductor devices
    (Chichester, West Sussex : Wiley, 2022) Glitzky, Annegret; Liero, Matthias; Nika, Grigor
    We derive a coarse-grained model for the electrothermal interaction of organic semiconductors. The model combines stationary drift-diffusion- based electrothermal models with thermistor-type models on subregions of the device and suitable transmission conditions. Moreover, we prove existence of a solution using a regularization argument and Schauder's fixed point theorem. In doing so, we extend recent work by taking into account the statistical relation given by the Gauss–Fermi integral and mobility functions depending on the temperature, charge-carrier density, and field strength, which is required for a proper description of organic devices.
