    We extend our work on the optimal mapping of distributions in three directions: (a) we consider any set-valued mapping, not just diffeomorphisms; (b) we distinguish between weak and strong optimality, and identify strong optimality with cyclic monotonicity and (c) we prove that, under some restrictions, a weakly optimal mapping has the subgradient property.
