We prove that the discrete transportation metrics on the d-dimensional discrete torus with mesh size 1/N converge, when N→∞, to the standard 2-Wasserstein distance W_2 on the continuous torus in the sense of Gromov-Hausdorff. This is the first convergence result for the recently developed discrete transportation metrics. The result shows the compatibility between these metrics and the well-established 2-Wasserstein metric. \n\n\n"}],"year":"2013","acknowledgement":"JM acknowledges support by Rubicon subsidy 680-50-0901 of the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO).","page":"879 - 899","doi":"10.1137/120886315 ","citation":{"short":"N.
