Abstract: The optimal mass transportation was introduced by Monge some 200 years ago and is, today, the source of large number of results in analysis, geometry and convexity. Here I investigate a new, surprising link between optimal transformations obtained by different Lagrangian actions on Riemannian manifolds. As a special case, for any pair of non-negative measures lambda+,lambda of equal mass W_1(lambda^-, lambda^+)= lim_{eps o 0} eps^{-1}inf_{mu} W_p(mu+epslambda^-, mu+epslambda^+) where Wp, pgeq1 is the Wasserstein distance and the infimum is over the set of probability measures in the ambient space.
