As shown by Blum-Jonsson this carries over to a general polarization, and together with work of Berman, Boucksom, and Jonsson, it is now known that the limit of these $\\delta_m$-invariants characterizes uniform Ding stability. A basic question since Fujita-Odaka's work has been to find an analytic interpretation of these invariants. We show that each $\\delta_m$ is the coercivity threshold of a quantized Ding functional on the $m$-th Bergman space and thus characterizes the existence of balanced metrics. This approach has a number of applications. The most basic one is that it provides an alternative way to compute these invariants, which is new even for $\\mathbb{P}^n$. Second, it allows us to introduce algebraically defined invariants that characterize the existence of K\\\"ahler-Ricci solitons (and the more general $g$-solitons of Berman-Witt Nystr\\\"om), as well as coupled versions thereof. Third, it leads to approximation results involving balanced metrics in the presence of automorphisms that extend some results of Donaldson.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-08-20T08:07:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "balanced metrics", "invariants characterizes uniform ding stability", "basis divisors fujita-odaka", "th bergman space", "algebro-geometric invariants" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
