Two classes of square-integrable random vectors have a well-defined joint law with finite second moment, whose marginals are their laws and which is a coupling of them with cost the mean-square distance; equality of joint laws is preserved when the same vector field of the common first law is added, with a common factor, to the second vectors.

Statement

In the setting of Wasserstein Spaces, Random Vectors, Vector Fields and Symmetric Matrices in Every Dimension: Standing Notation, let X,V,X,VL2(Ω;Rd)X,V,X',V'\in L^{2}(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^{d}), the space of classes of square-integrable random vectors in Rd\mathbb{R}^{d} with its norm L2\lVert\cdot\rVert_{L^{2}} and the law L(X)\mathcal{L}(X) of a class, and let M2M_{2} be the second moment of that clause. Push-forwards are those of Probability Measures on Euclidean Space and Random Vectors: Standing Notation §pushforward, and pr1,pr2:Rd+dRd\mathrm{pr}_{1},\mathrm{pr}_{2}:\mathbb{R}^{d+d}\to\mathbb{R}^{d} are the coordinate projections of Rd+d\mathbb{R}^{d+d}. For representatives of XX and of VV, their pairing (X,V)(X,V) is a random vector in Rd+d\mathbb{R}^{d+d} by Basic Properties of Random Vectors: Coordinates, Borel Images and Arithmetic, Change of Variables, Almost Sure Equality and Pairs §pair, with the law of that definition. Couplings and their quadratic cost II are as fixed in Wasserstein Spaces, Random Vectors, Vector Fields and Symmetric Matrices in Every Dimension: Standing Notation §dimensions, and for η\eta in the space L2(L(X);Rd)L^{2}(\mathcal{L}(X);\mathbb{R}^{d}) the composition ηXL2(Ω;Rd)\eta\circ X\in L^{2}(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^{d}) is that of that clause. Then the following hold.

1. (The joint law) The law of the pairing (X,V)(X,V) of representatives of XX and of VV does not depend on the representatives chosen; it is called the joint law of XX and VV and written L(X,V)\mathcal{L}(X,V). It belongs to P2(Rd+d)\mathcal{P}_{2}(\mathbb{R}^{d+d}), and

M2(L(X,V))=XL22+VL22.M_{2}\bigl(\mathcal{L}(X,V)\bigr)=\lVert X\rVert_{L^{2}}^{2}+\lVert V\rVert_{L^{2}}^{2}.

2. (Marginals and cost) (pr1)#L(X,V)=L(X)(\mathrm{pr}_{1})_{\#}\mathcal{L}(X,V)=\mathcal{L}(X) and (pr2)#L(X,V)=L(V)(\mathrm{pr}_{2})_{\#}\mathcal{L}(X,V)=\mathcal{L}(V); thus L(X,V)\mathcal{L}(X,V) is a coupling of L(X)\mathcal{L}(X) and L(V)\mathcal{L}(V), and its quadratic cost is

I(L(X,V))=XVL22.I\bigl(\mathcal{L}(X,V)\bigr)=\lVert X-V\rVert_{L^{2}}^{2}.

3. (Invariance under shifts by a vector field) Suppose that L(X,V)=L(X,V)\mathcal{L}(X,V)=\mathcal{L}(X',V'). Then L(X)=L(X)\mathcal{L}(X)=\mathcal{L}(X'), so that L2(L(X);Rd)L^{2}(\mathcal{L}(X);\mathbb{R}^{d}) and L2(L(X);Rd)L^{2}(\mathcal{L}(X');\mathbb{R}^{d}) are the same space and ηX\eta\circ X' is defined for η\eta in it; and for every ηL2(L(X);Rd)\eta\in L^{2}(\mathcal{L}(X);\mathbb{R}^{d}) and every tRt\in\mathbb{R},

L(X, V+tηX)=L(X, V+tηX).\mathcal{L}\bigl(X,\ V+t\,\eta\circ X\bigr)=\mathcal{L}\bigl(X',\ V'+t\,\eta\circ X'\bigr).
