Bergman metrics and geodesics in the space of Kähler metrics on principally polarized Abelian varieties
arXiv:0910.2311
Abstract
It's well-known in \kahler geometry that the infinite dimensional symmetric space $\hcal$ of smooth \kahler metrics in a fixed \kahler class on a polarized \kahler manifold is well approximated by finite dimensional submanifolds $\bcal_k \subset \hcal$ of Bergman metrics of height . Then it's natural to ask whether geodesics in $\hcal$ can be approximated by Bergman geodesics in $\bcal_k$. For any polarized \kahler manifold, the approximation is in the topology. While Song-Zelditch proved the convergence for the torus-invariant metrics over toric varieties. In this article, we show that some approximation exists as well as a complete asymptotic expansion for principally polarized Abelian varieties. We also get a complete asymptotic expansion for harmonic maps into $\bcal_k$ which generalizes the work of Rubinstein-Zelditch on toric varieties.
