abstract
In this article we revisit the weak optimal transport (WOT) problem, introduced by Gozlan, Roberto, Samson and Tetali (2017). We work on the real line, with barycentric cost functions, and as our first result give the following characterization of the set of optimal couplings for two probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$: every optimizer couples the left tails of $\mu$ and $\nu$ using a submartingale, the right tails using a supermartingale, while the central region is coupled using a martingale. We then consider a constrained optimal transport problem, where admissible transport plans are only those that are optimal for the WOT problem with $L^1$ costs. The constrained problem generalizes the (sub/super-) martingale optimal transport problems, studied by Beiglb\"ock and Juillet (2016), and Nutz and Stebegg (2018) among others. Finally, we introduce a generalized \textit{shadow measure} and establish its connection to the WOT. This extends and generalizes the results obtained in (sub/super-) martingale settings.

The Fundamental Theorem of Weak Optimal Transport
Weak optimal transport has a fundamental theorem: strong duality, primal and dual attainment, and complementary slackness, with applications to martingale and entropic transport.
