For smooth test configurations, there always exist C^{1,1} geodesic rays in Kahler metric space parallel to the algebraic ray. The $\yen$ invariant agrees with Futaki invariant, at least under nice assumptions. Explicit examples in Toric…

Geodesic rays of class C^{1,1} are constructed for any test configuration of a positive line bundle L on X using resolution of singularities. The construction reduces to finding a subsolution of the corresponding Monge-Ampere equation.…

The space of positively curved hermitian metrics on a positive holomorphic line bundle over a compact complex manifold is an infinite-dimensional symmetric space. It is shown by Phong and Sturm that geodesics in this space can be uniformly…

Geodesics on the infinite dimensional symmetric space $\hcal$ of K\"ahler metrics in a fixed K\"ahler class on a projective K\"ahler manifold X are solutions of a homogeneous complex Monge-Amp\`ere equation in $X \times A$, where $A \subset…

From the work of Phong and Sturm in 2007, for a polarised projective manifold and an ample test configuration, one can associate the geodesic ray of plurisubharmonic metrics on the polarising line bundle using the solution of the…

It is shown that the geodesic rays constructed as limits of Bergman geodesics from a test configuration are always of class $C^{1,\alpha}, 0<\alpha<1$. An essential step is to establish that the rays can be extended as solutions of a…

Starting with the data of a curve of singularity types, we use the Legendre transform to construct weak geodesic rays in the space of locally bounded metrics on an ample line bundle L over a compact manifold. Using this we associate weak…

We prove that any finite energy geodesic ray with a finite Mabuchi slope is maximal in the sense of Berman-Boucksom-Jonsson, and reduce the proof of the uniform Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for constant scalar curvature K\"{a}hler metrics…

Given a polarized complex manifold, projection of a torus-equivariant test configuration to holomorphic vector fields was introduced by G. Sz\'ekelyhidi, as the limit of the associated $\mathbb{C}^*$-actions. We show that there actually…

We prove a $C^{1,1}$ estimate for solutions of complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations on compact K\"ahler manifolds with possibly nonempty boundary, in a degenerate cohomology class. This strengthens previous estimates of Phong-Sturm. As…

It's well-known in \kahler geometry that the infinite dimensional symmetric space $\hcal$ of smooth \kahler metrics in a fixed \kahler class on a polarized \kahler manifold is well approximated by finite dimensional submanifolds $\bcal_k…

Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold, $L\to X$ an ample line bundle over $X$, and ${\cal H}$ the space of all positively curved metrics on $L$. We show that a pair $(h_0,T)$ consisting of a point $h_0\in {\cal H}$ and a test configuration…

In this paper we continue our earlier work about topological first passage percolation and answer certain questions asked in our previous paper. Notably, we prove that apart from trivialities, in the generic configuration there exists…

For a big class represented by $\theta$, we show that the metric space $(\mathcal{E}^{p}(X,\theta),d_{p})$ for $p \geq 1$ is Buseman convex. This allows us to construct a chordal metric $d_{p}^{c}$ on the space of geodesic rays in…

Motivated by numerous questions in random geometry, given a smooth manifold $M$, we approach a systematic study of the differential topology of Gaussian random fields (GRF) $X:M\to \mathbb{R}^k$, that we interpret as random variables with…

The aim of this paper is to present some properties of Choquet maximal Radon probability measures on compact, convex subsets of Hausdorff, locally convex, topological real vector spaces. Theorem 3.12 is the main result of the paper. While…

We associate certain probability measures on $\R$ to geodesics in the space $\H_L$ of positively curved metrics on a line bundle $L$, and to geodesics in the finite dimensional symmetric space of hermitian norms on $H^0(X, kL)$. We prove…

Let $X$ be a compact toric extremal K\"ahler manifold. Using the work of Sz\'ekelyhidi, we provide a combinatorial criterion on the fan describing $X$ to ensure the existence of complex deformations of $X$ that carry extremal metrics. As an…

A study of the relation between a noetherian local domain with a given valuation and its associated graded ring with respect to the valuation, which in some cases is an esentially toric variety, possibly of infinite embedding dimension, but…

We establish a natural and geometric 1-1 correspondence between projective toric varieties of dimension $n$ and horofunction compactifications of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with respect to rational polyhedral norms. For this purpose, we explain a…
