Abstract

In this note we prove that if the cost function satisfies some necessary structural conditions and the densities are bounded away from zero and infinity, then strictly c-convex potentials arising in optimal transportation belong to W2,1+κ loc for some κ > 0. This generalizes some recents results concerning the regularity of strictly convex Alexandrov solutions of the Monge-Ampère equation with right-hand side bounded away from zero and infinity [G. De Philippis and A. Figalli, Invent. Math., 192 (2013), pp. 55-69; G. De Philippis, A. Figalli, and O. Savin, Math. Ann., to appear; T. Schmidt, Adv. Math., to appear].
