On the Spectrum of weighted Laplacian operator and its application to uniqueness of K\"ahler Einstein metrics

Abstract

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, the lack of regularities on the geodesic forbids us to use spectral formula of the weighed Laplacian operator directly. However, we can use smooth geodesics to approximate the weak one, then prove that a sequence of eigenfunctions will converge into the first eigenspace of the weighted Laplacian operator.
