Adelic Cartier divisors with base conditions and the Bonnesen-Diskant-type inequalities

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce positivity notions for pairs of adelic R-Cartier divisors and R-base conditions, and study fundamental properties of the arithmetic volumes defined for such pairs. We show that the Gateaux derivatives of the arithmetic volume function at big pairs along the directions of adelic R-Cartier divisors are given by suitable arithmetic positive intersection numbers. As a corollary, we obtain an Arakelov theoretic analogue of the Bonnesen-Diskant inequality in convex geometry.
