We give new proofs of two implications in the Donaldson--Uhlenbeck--Yau theorem. Our proofs are based on geodesic rays of Hermitian metrics, inspired by recent work on the Yau--Tian--Donaldson conjecture.
In this expository article, we follow the work of Langer to prove the boundedness of the moduli space of semistable torsion-free sheaves over a projective variety, in any characteristic.
Given a compact Riemann surface $Y$ and a positive integer $m$, Narasimhan and Simha defined a measure on $Y$ associated to the $m$-th tensor power of the canonical line bundle. We study the limit of this measure on holomorphic families of Riemann surfaces with semistable reduction. The convergence takes place on a hybrid space whose central fiber is the associated metrized curve complex in the sense of Amini and Baker. We also study the limit of the measure induced by the Hermitian pairing defined by the Narasimhan-Simha measure. For $m = 1$, both these measures coincide with the Bergman measure on $Y$. We also extend the definition of the Narasimhan-Simha measure to the singular curves on the boundary of $\overline{\mathcal{M}_g}$ in such a way that these measures form a continuous family of measures on the universal curve over $\overline{\mathcal{M}_g}$.
We prove a folklore conjecture that the Bergman measure along a holomorphic family of curves parametrized by the punctured unit disk converges to the Zhang measure on the associated Berkovich space. The convergence takes place on a Berkovich hybrid space. We also study the convergence of the Bergman measure to a measure on a metrized curve complex in the sense of Amini and Baker.
We study the convergence of volume forms on a degenerating holomorphic family of log-Calabi-Yau varieties to a non-Archimedean measure, extending a result of Boucksom and Jonsson. More precisely, let $(X,B)$ be a holomorphic family of sub log canonical, log-Calabi-Yau complex varieties parameterized by the punctured unit disk. Let $η$ be a meromorphic volume form on $X$ with poles along $B$. We show that the (possibly infinite) measures induced by the restriction of the $η$ to a fiber converge to a measure on the Berkovich analytification as we approach the puncture. The convergence takes place on a hybrid space, which is obtained by filling in the space $X \setminus B$ with the aforementioned Berkovich space over the puncture.
