Approximation by finitely supported measures

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Given a compactly supported probability measure on a Riemannian manifold, we study the asymptotic speed at which it can be approximated (in Wasserstein distance of any exponent p) by finitely supported measure. This question has been studied under the names of ``quantization of distributions and, when p=1, ``location problem. When p=2, it is linked with Centroidal Voronoi Tessellations.
