A Wasserstein norm for signed measures, with application to nonlocal transport equation with source term

We introduce the optimal transportation interpretation of the Kantorovich norm on thespace of signed Radon measures with finite mass, based on a generalized Wasserstein distancefor measures with different masses.With the formulation and the new topological properties we obtain for this norm, we proveexistence and uniqueness for solutions to non-local transport equations with source terms, whenthe initial condition is a signed measure.
