Abstract: The key condition A3w of Ma, Trudinger and Wang for regularity of optimal transportation maps is implied by the nonnegativity of a pseudo-Riemannian curvature -- which we call cross-curvature -- induced by the transportation cost. For the Riemannian distance squared cost, it is shown that (1) cross-curvature nonnegativity is preserved for products of two manifolds; (2) both A3w and cross-curvature nonnegativity are inherited by Riemannian submersions; and (3) the $n$-dimensional round sphere satisfies cross-curvature nonnegativity. From these results, a large new class of Riemannian manifolds satisfying cross-curvature nonnegativity (thus A3w) is obtained, including many whose sectional curvature is far from constant. All known obstructions to the regularity of optimal maps are absent from these manifolds, making them a class for which it is natural to conjecture that regularity holds. This conjecture is confirmed for complex projective space CP^n.
