Using some results proved in De Pascale and Pratelli [Calc. Var. Partial Differ. Equ. 14 (2002) 249-274] (and De Pascale et al. [Bull. London Math. Soc. 36 (2004) 383-395]) and a suitable interpolation technique, we show that the transport density relative to an source is also an function for any .

The irrigation problem is the problem of finding an efficient way to transport a measure μ+ onto a measure μ-. By efficient, we mean that a structure that achieves the transport (which, following [Bernot, Caselles and Morel, Publ. Mat.49 (2005) 417–451], we call traffic plan) is better if it carries the mass in a grouped way rather than in a separate way. This is formalized by considering costs functionals that favorize this property. The aim of this paper is to introduce a dynamical cost functional...
