Description

Among $\R^3$-valued triples of random vectors $(X,Y,Z)$ having fixed marginal probability laws, what is the best way to jointly draw $(X,Y,Z)$ in such a way that the simplex generated by $(X,Y,Z)$ has maximal average volume? Motivated by this simple question, we study optimal transportation problems with several marginals when the objective function is the determinant or its absolute value.
