Abstract

Let MKSB\mathcal{M}_{\rm KSB} (resp. MKSB\mathcal{M}_{\rm KSB}') be the the moduli space of nn-dimensional K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds (resp. varieties) XX with KXK_X ample. We prove that the Weil-Petersson metric on MKSB\mathcal{M}_{\rm KSB} extends uniquely to the projective variety MKSB\mathcal{M}_{\rm KSB}', as a closed positive current with continuous local potentials. This generalizes a theorem of Wolpert which treats the case n=1n=1, and also confirms a conjecture of Berman-Guenancia. In addition, we derive uniform estimates for the volumes of sublevel sets of K\"ahler-Einstein potentials
