  1. The Exchange Value Embedded In A Transport System.

    Abstract

    This paper shows that a well designed transport system has an embedded
    exchange value by serving as a market for potential exchange between consumers.
    Under suitable conditions, one can improve the welfare of consumers in the
    system simply by allowing some exchange of goods between consumers during
    transportation without incurring additional transportation costs. We propose an
    explicit valuation formula to measure this exchange value for a given
    compatible transport system. This value is always nonnegative and bounded from
    above.

  2. On the transport dimension of measures.

    Abstract

    In this article, we define the transport dimension of probability measures on
    $\mathbb{R}^m$ using ramified optimal transportation theory. We show that the
    transport dimension of a probability measure is bounded above by the Minkowski
    dimension and below by the Hausdorff dimension of the measure. Moreover, we
    introduce a metric, called "the dimensional distance", on the space of
    probability measures on $\mathbb{R}^m$.
