Abstract: In this paper, we prove a structure theorem for discrete optimal transportation plans. We show that, given any pair of discrete probability measures and a cost function, there exists an optimal transportation plan that can be expressed as the sum of two deterministic plans. As an application, we estimate the infinity-Wasserstein distance between two discrete probability measures and with the -Wasserstein distance, times a constant depending on , , and the fixed cost function.
