The purpose of this article is to study the strict convexity of the Mabuchi functional along a $C^{1,1}$-geodesic, with the aid of the $\epsilon$-geodesics. We proved the $L^2$-convergence of the fiberwise volume element of the…
We establish the convexity of the weighted twisted Mabuchi K-energy functional along geodesics in the finite energy space $\mathcal{E}^{1,T}(X,\omega)$, covering the case of divisors with mixed cusp and conic singularities. We then prove…
We establish the convexity of Mabuchi's K-energy functional along weak geodesics in the space of Kahler potentials on a compact Kahler manifold thus confirming a conjecture of Chen and give some applications in Kahler geometry, including a…
In this note we prove that any $W^{1,2}$ mapping $u$ in the plane that minimizes an appropriate quasiconvex energy functional subject to the Jacobian constraint ${\rm det} \na u=1$ a.e., are necessarily Lipschitz. Furthermore we show that…
Let (X,L) be a polarized compact manifold, i.e. L is an ample line bundle over X and denote by H the infinite dimensional space of all positively curved Hermitian metrics on L equipped with the Mabuchi metric. In this short note we show,…
For a fixed smooth map $u_0$ between two Riemann surfaces $\Sigma$ and $S$ with non-zero degree, we consider the energy function on Teichm\"uller space $\mc{T}$ of $\Sigma$ that assigns to a complex structure $t\in \mc{T}$ on $\Sigma$ the…
The purpose of this paper is to provide a new proof of Bando-Mabuchi's uniqueness theorem of K\"ahler Einstein metrics on Fano manifolds, based on Chen's weak C^{1,1} geodesic without using any further regularities. Unlike the smooth case,…
In this paper, we prove that the transverse Mabuchi K-energy functional is convex along the weak geodesic in the space of Sasakian metrics. As an application, we obtain the uniqueness of constant scalar curvature Sasakian metrics modulo…
Let $\Omega$ be a convex domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ and $\varphi$ a convex function on $\Omega$. We prove that $\log{K_{\Omega,\varphi}(z)}$ is a convex function (might be identically $-\infty$) on $\Omega$, where $K_{\Omega,\varphi}$ is the…
We study the geodesic convexity of various energy and entropy functionals restricted to (non-geodesically convex) submanifolds of Wasserstein spaces with their induced geometry. We prove a variety of convexity results by means of a simple…
The purpose of this paper is to generalize the convexity of Mabuchi's functional to the conic setting. We first established a frame to study conic cscK metrics, and then the conic Mabuchi functional was introduced in such a way that conic…
Recently, Kulikov (\cite{Ku}) has shown that certain convex functionals on weighted Bergman spaces are maximized by reproducing kernels. We show a sharp quantitative stability of these estimates with the optimal norm and the exponent and an…
This article is an expository introduction to our paper Convexity of the K-energy and Uniqueness of Extremal metrics. We present the main ideas behind the proof that Mabuchi's K-energy functional is convex along weak geodesics in the space…
We study geodesics for plurisubharmonic functions from the Cegrell class ${\mathcal F}_1$ on a bounded hyperconvex domain of ${\mathbb C}^n$ and show that, as in the case of metrics on K\"{a}hler compact menifolds, they linearize an energy…
Let $\pi:\mc{X}\to \mc{T}$ be Teichm\"uller curve over Teichm\"uller space $\mc{T}$, such that the fiber $\mc{X}_z=\pi^{-1}(z)$ is exactly the Riemann surface given by the complex structure $z\in \mc{T}$. For a fixed Riemannian manifold $M$…
In this note we investigate the regularity of geodesics in the space of convex and plurisubharmonic functions. In the real setting we prove (optimal) local C^{1,1} regularity. We construct examples which prove that the global C^{1,1}…
We prove that any two Kahler potentials on a compact Kahler manifold can be connected by a geodesic segment of C^{1,1} regularity. This follows from an a priori interior real Hessian bound for solutions of the nondegenerate complex…
Let $(M,g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold and $\sigma$ be a closed 2-form on $M$ representing an integer cohomology class. In this paper, using symplectic reduction, we show how the problem of existence of closed magnetic geodesics for…
Many problems of theoretical and practical interest involve finding a convex or concave function. For instance, optimization problems such as finding the projection on the convex functions in $H^k(\Omega)$, or some problems in economics. In…
We derive the geodesic equation for relatively K\"ahler metrics on fibrations and prove that any two such metrics with fibrewise constant scalar curvature are joined by a unique smooth geodesic. We then show convexity of the log-norm…
