Abstract: In this paper, we study the regularity of optimal mappings in Monge's mass transfer problem. Using the approximation to Monge's cost function given by the Euclidean distance c(x,y)=dist(x,y) through the costs c_eps(x,y)=(eps^2+dist(x,y)^2)^{1/2}, we consider the optimal mappings T_eps for these costs, and we prove that the eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix DT_eps, which are all positive, are locally uniformly bounded. By an example we prove that T_eps is in general not uniformly Lipschitz continuous as eps-0, even if the mass distributions are positive and smooth, and the domains are c-convex.
