## Abstract (arXiv)

Weak optimal transport has been recently introduced by Gozlan et al. The original motivation stems from the theory of geometric inequalities; further applications concern numerics of martingale optimal transport and stability in mathematical finance. In this note we provide a complete geometric characterization of the 'weak' version of the classical monotone rearrangement between measures on the real line, complementing earlier results of Alfonsi, Corbetta, and Jourdain.
