A telling counter-example
Proposition Let µθ = δθ with θ ∈ Rd , and let ν = 21 δy1 + 21 δy2 with
y1 , y2 ∈ Rd distinct. Let c(x, y ) = ∥x − y ∥pp , p > 1. Then
• θ 7→ W (θ) is differentiable everywhere.

and any ψ0∗ ∈ argmaxψ F (ψ, θ0 ), θ 7→ F (ψ0∗ , θ) is not
• For θ0 ̸= y1 +y

differentiable at θ0 .
2
Hence (Grad-OT) relation does not hold (except for θ0 = y1 +y
2 ).
Proof
• F (ψ, θ) = ψ c (θ) +

Fix θ0 and ψ0∗ , then (ψ0∗ )1 − (ψ0∗ )2 = c(θ0 , y1 ) − c(θ0 , y2 ), and
