Restricted volumes and divisorial Zariski decompositions
arXiv:1005.1503
Abstract
We give a relation between the existence of a Zariski decomposition and the behavior of the restricted volume of a big divisor on a smooth (complex) projective variety. Moreover, we give an analytic description of the restricted volume in the line of Boucksom's work. It enables us to define the restricted volume of a transcendental class on a compact Kähler manifold in natural way. The relation can be extended to a transcendental class.
