The theorem states that, for dimension n ≥ 2 and a compact, connected metric space M carrying a smooth (C^∞) n-dimensional manifold structure modeled on Euclidean space ℝⁿ, a C^∞ Riemannian bundle metric on its tangent spaces, the Riemannian-manifold compatibility with its metric, and the Borel σ-algebra, suppose the weak MTW condition holds. Weak MTW means that for every point x, every vector p in the injectivity domain at x (vectors p for which the geodesic from x with initial velocity a·p still realizes the distance, dist = a‖p‖, for some a > 1), and all tangent vectors ξ, η at x that are orthogonal, the Ma–Trudinger–Wang quantity is nonnegative; that quantity is −3/2 times the iterated second derivatives in t and s of the cost c(y,z) = dist(y,z)²/2 evaluated at exp_x(tξ) and exp_x(p + sη), at t = s = 0. Let 0 < lam ≤ cap be reals such that at least one admissible density exists. A density ρ : M → ℝ is admissible when it is almost-everywhere measurable and integrable with respect to the calibrated volume measure metricVolume (Hausdorff measure of dimension n rescaled to agree with Lebesgue measure on Euclidean space), has integral 1, and satisfies lam ≤ ρ ≤ cap almost everywhere. Then there exist α with 0 < α ≤ 1 and C ≥ 0 such that for all admissible densities ρ0 and ρ1 there is a homeomorphism T of M that is an optimal map from ρ0 to ρ1 for the quadratic cost, that is, a measurable map pushing the measure ρ0·vol forward to ρ1·vol and minimizing ∫ cost(x,S x) ρ0(x) dvol among all such measurable maps S. Moreover, every optimal map S from ρ0 to ρ1 agrees with T almost everywhere with respect to ρ0·vol, and both T and its inverse are Hölder with the same exponent α and constant C: dist(Tx,Tx') ≤ C·dist(x,x')^α and dist(T⁻¹y,T⁻¹y') ≤ C·dist(y,y')^α. The exponent α and constant C depend only on M, lam and cap, not on ρ0 and ρ1. The statement is admitted without proof.
