A new research paper introduces a unified Kantorovich duality framework for multimarginal optimal transport (MOT) problems with bounded continuous cost functions. The study focuses on establishing the equality between primal and dual values and characterizing the structure of optimal dual potentials. For compact metric spaces, the paper proves that the dual problem has an optimizer within the class of mutually c-conjugate families, utilizing Fenchel-Rockafellar duality, equicontinuity estimates, and the Arzelà-Ascoli theorem. In the non-compact case, the research recovers the Kantorovich duality identity through truncation and tightness arguments, and under a support-splitting condition, obtains a bounded Borel measurable dual optimizer.
