Motivations: cont’d 3. Further developments: other functionals, singular metrics, ... ( Berman, Berndtsson, Darvas, Guedj, Phong, Tian, Ross, Wytt Nystr¨ om...) 4. Our aim: local counterpart of the theory for functions on open sets. Especially: applications? Alexander Rashkovskii (UiS) Local geodesics 3 / 28

PSH PSH( M ): functions u : M → [ −∞ , ∞ ) plurisubharmonic on a complex manifold M , i.e.: (i) upper semicontinuous on M (ii) u ◦ φ subharmonic in the unit disk D for every holomorphic mapping φ : D → M . Basic examples: 1. u = c log | f | for any c > 0 and any holomorphic mapping f : M → C n ; 2. u = ψ (log | z 1 | , . . . , log | z n | ) for a convex function ψ in S ⊂ R n . Basic properties: 1. u k ∈ PSH( M ) , 1 ≤ k ≤ N ⇒ u = max k u k ∈ PSH( M ); 2. u k ∈ PSH( M ) , u k ց u ⇒ u ∈ PSH( M ); 3. u α ∈ PSH( M ) , u α < C ∀ α ⇒ u = sup ∗ α u α ∈ PSH( M ).
