Growth of balls of holomorphic sections and energy at equilibrium

Abstract

Let X be a compact complex manifold endowed with a big line bundle L. We define the energy at equilibrium of a weighted subset as the Monge-Ampere energy of the associated extremal plurisubharmonic weight. We prove the differentiability of the energy at equilibrium with respect to the weight, and show that this energy describes the asymptotic behaviour as k goes to infinity of the volume of the induced sup-norm unit ball in the space of global sections of kL. As a consequence of these results, we extend Rumely's Robin-type formula for the transfinite diameter. We also obtain an asymptotic description of the analytic torsion and extend Yuan's equidistribution theorem for algebraic points of small height to the case of a big line bundle.
