Calculus, heat flow, optimal transport and curvature-dimension bounds in metric measure spaces

Lecture with Luigi Ambrosio on the most recent developments on calculus in metric measure spaces and the key role played by the theory of optimal transport in the derivation of synthetic lower bounds on Ricci curvature and upper bounds on dimension, for metric measure structures.
