Martingale Schrödinger Bridges and Optimal Semistatic Portfolios
In a two-period financial market where a stock is traded dynamically and European options at maturity are traded statically, we study the so-called martingale Schr\"odinger bridge Q*; that is, the minimal-entropy martingale measure among all models calibrated to option prices. This minimization is shown to be in duality with an exponential utility maximization over semistatic portfolios. Under a technical condition on the physical measure P, we show that an optimal portfolio exists and provides an explicit solution for Q*. This result overcomes the remarkable issue of non-closedness of semistatic strategies discovered by Acciaio, Larsson and Schachermayer. Specifically, we exhibit a dense subset of calibrated martingale measures with particular properties to show that the portfolio in question has a well-defined and integrable option position.

Limits of Semistatic Trading Strategies
We show that pointwise limits of semistatic trading strategies in discrete time are again semistatic strategies. The analysis is carried out in full generality for a two-period model, and under a probabilistic condition …
Foundations of Schrödinger Bridges for Generative Modeling
At the core of modern generative modeling frameworks, including diffusion models, score-based models, and flow matching, is the task of transforming a simple prior distribution into a complex target distribution through …
Optimal and Scalable MAPF via Multi-Marginal Optimal Transport and Schrödinger Bridges
We consider anonymous multi-agent path finding (MAPF) where a set of robots is tasked to travel to a set of targets on a finite, connected graph. We show that MAPF can be cast as a special class of multi-marginal optimal…
LightSBB-M: Bridging Schrödinger and Bass for Generative Diffusion Modeling
The Schrodinger Bridge and Bass (SBB) formulation, which jointly controls drift and volatility, is an established extension of the classical Schrodinger Bridge (SB). Building on this framework, we introduce LightSBB-M, a…
Image-to-Image TranslationBM$^2$: Coupled Schrödinger Bridge Matching
A Schr\"{o}dinger bridge establishes a dynamic transport map between two target distributions via a reference process, simultaneously solving an associated entropic optimal transport problem. We consider the setting wher…
