4.3 Potential estimate I
We denote the CY metrics on as
Using the local potentials of , we can write in terms of local absolute potentials on :
This depends on an implicit choice of and in Lemma 4.1. Our goal is to find a suitable choice and show the smallness of in the generic region.
Proposition 4.4. Given small numbers , then for sufficiently small depending on and , the function is near its minimum with large probability:
Proof. We wish to compare with from Lemma 4.2 by an -stability estimate. Pick a parameter such that
Since the potential has a uniform bound, Theorem 2.1 implies another uniform Skoda estimate with modified constants
We also have the -stability property for in Lemma 4.2:
We then apply the uniform -stability estimate Theorem 2.6, with , and . In this construction are sufficiently small, chosen successively depending on and . We conclude
Now , so
Taking the contrapositive, if we choose , then
whence for , using again ,
∎
Remark 4.5. The reason we use an asymmetric version of the -stability estimate, is that we have no control on the density of the comparison metric away from the the generic region except for a small bound on the measure contribution there.
We can reformulate this in terms of the local potentials of the CY metrics, and thereby eliminate auxiliary choices of Fubini-Study metric and regularisation.
Corollary 4.6. Given small numbers , then for small enough depending on , there exist appropriately chosen local potentials on , normalized to , satisfying
and independent of and small .
Proof. By construction in Lemma 4.1, the local potential of is -close to , and since these two are practically the same. Up to an overall normalisation constant, which is fixed by , we have so the measure bound follows from the previous result.
Given , we consider the region obtained from shrinking the -dimensional faces near the boundary:
The following theorem is a precise formulation for -convergence of the local CY potentials to over the -dimensional open faces of as .
Theorem 4.7. (-convergence estimate on the potential) Given , then for sufficiently small , on each there is a -bound
Proof. We need to obtain upper bound on . Consider and . Let be a parameter to be fixed, so . The function has an a priori Lipschitz estimate on , so the oscillation of on is less than by choosing small enough.
Now we apply the mean value inequality to the psh function on a ball in the local covering space of , which projects to via . We have
hence
But on the ball , except on a subset of the ball with -percentage , on which we use the coarser bound . Combining these,
by choosing sufficiently small depending on . ∎
Remark 4.8. The above estimates do not use the full strength of the regularisation lemma 4.2. We only use the -stability of the volume density, not the metric information.
