Uniform diameter estimates for Kaehler metrics in big cohomology classes

Abstract

We generalize previous diameter estimates and local non-vanishing of volumes for Kaehler metrics to the case of big cohomology classes. In our proof, among other things, we will prove a uniform diameter estimate for a family of smooth Kaehler metrics only involving an integrability condition. We also have to use fine stability properties of complex Monge-Ampere equations with prescribed singularities.
