In this paper, we prove that on a smooth K\"ahler manifold, the $\mathbb{G}$-coercivity of the weighted Mabuchi functional implies the existence of the (v, w)-weighted-cscK (extremal) metric with v log-concave (firstly studied in…

We introduce a notion of weak convergence in arbitrary metric spaces. Metric functionals are key in our analysis: weak convergence of sequences in a given metric space is tested against all the metric functionals defined on said space. When…

Functions that are piecewise defined are a common sight in mathematics while convexity is a property especially desired in optimization. Suppose now a piecewise-defined function is convex on each of its defining components - when can we…
