7.4. Singular KE metrics on klt pairs
Let us now state the immediate generalization to klt pairs.
Definition 7.11.
Let be a klt compact Kähler pair.
The pair is said to be -CY, iff there is some multiple of such that where is a global generator of .
The pair is canonically polarized iff is ample.
Theorem 7.12.
Let be a klt compact Kähler pair.
If is -CY it carries a singular Ricci flat metric with adapted volume form in any Kähler class of , this current being smooth outside if projective and the Kähler class is rational.
If it is canonically polarized it carries a unique singular KE metric in the cohomology class of , regular outside .
