Mabuchi metrics and properness of the modified Ding functional

Yan Li and Bin Zhou

Vol. 302 (2019), No. 2, 659–692
Abstract

In this paper, we study Mabuchi metrics on Fano manifolds. We prove that Mabuchi metrics exist if and only if the modified Ding functional is proper modulo the automorphism group. As an application, we establish a criterion for the existence of Mabuchi metrics on Fano group compactifications.
