Generalized barycentric projection as a Monge mapping for Gromov–Wasserstein distance

From papers

Let cmathbbScmathbb{S} and cmathbbXcmathbb{X} be metric-measure spaces, let cgammacin\fu0005cGamma(cmathbbS,cmathbbX)cgamma^*cin\fu0005cGamma^*(cmathbb{S},cmathbb{X}), and let cmathcalTcgammacmathcal{T}_{cgamma^*} be defined by

cmathcalTcgamma(s):=coperatornameargminxcinXcintXdX2(x,x)dcgammas(x).cmathcal{T}_{cgamma^*}(s):=coperatorname*{\arg\,\min}_{xcin X}cint_X d_X^2(x,x')dcgamma^*_s(x).

Generalized barycentric projection conjecture. The map cmathcalTcgammacmathcal{T}_{cgamma^*} is a Monge mapping for the coperatornameGW(cmathbbS,ctildecmathbbXcgamma)coperatorname{GW}(cmathbb{S},ctilde{cmathbb{X}}_{cgamma^*}) problem. The supplied text does not state whether this conjecture has been proved or disproved.
