Toric Kähler-Einstein metrics and convex compact polytopes

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show that any compact convex simple lattice polytope is the moment polytope of a Kähler-Einstein orbifold, unique up to orbifold covering and homothety. We extend the Wang-Zhu Theorem \cite{WZ} giving the existence of a Kähler-Ricci soliton on any toric monotone manifold on any compact convex simple labelled polytope satisfying the combinatoric condition corresponding to monotonicity. We obtain that any compact convex simple polytope $P\subset \bR^n$ admits a set of inward normals, unique up to dilatation, such that there exists a symplectic potential satisfying the Guillemin boundary condition (with respect to these normals) and the Kähler-Einstein equation on $P\times \bR^n$. We interpret our result in terms of existence of singular Kähler-Einstein metrics on toric manifolds.
