Donaldson's conjecture on the Calabi functional and non-Archimedean K-energy

Less than 1 year old · traced to

Let (X,L)(X,L) be a polarized manifold. Let H\mathcal{H} be the space of Kähler metrics in the class c1(L)c_1(L), let HNA⁡\mathcal{H}^{\operatorname{NA}} be the space of smooth non-Archimedean metrics, let Cal⁡(ω)\operatorname{Cal}(\omega) denote the Calabi functional, let MNA⁡(Φ)M^{\operatorname{NA}}(\Phi) denote the non-Archimedean K-energy, and let ∥Φ∥2\|\Phi\|_2 be the non-Archimedean L2L^2-norm. Donald's conjecture. One has

inf⁡ω∈HCal⁡(ω)=sup⁡Φ∈HNA⁡−MNA⁡(Φ)∥Φ∥2.\inf_{\omega\in\mathcal{H}}\operatorname{Cal}(\omega)=\sup_{\Phi\in\mathcal{H}^{\operatorname{NA}}}\frac{-M^{\operatorname{NA}}(\Phi)}{\|\Phi\|_2}.

This is the non-Archimedean formulation of Donaldson's conjecture relating the infimum of the Calabi functional to destabilizing non-Archimedean metrics; no resolution is given in the supplied text.
