Quasi-monotone convergence of plurisubharmonic functions

Abstract

The complex Monge-Amp\`ere operator has been defined for locally bounded plurisubharmonic functions by Bedford-Taylor in the 80's. This definition has been extended to compact complex manifolds, and to various classes of mildly unbounded quasi-plurisubharmonic functions by various authors. As this operator is not continuous for the $L^{1}$-topology, several stronger topologies have been introduced over the last decades to remedy this, while maintaining efficient compactness criteria. The purpose of this note is to show that these stronger topologies are essentially equivalent to the natural quasi-monotone topology that we introduce and study here.
