1. Real and complex Monge-Ampère equations, statistical mechanics and canonical metrics
Abstract : Recent decades has seen a strong trend in complex geometry to study canonical metrics and the way they relate to geometric analysis, algebraic geometry and probability theory. This thesis consists of four papers each contributing to this field. The first paper sets up a probabilistic framework for real Monge-Ampère equations on tori. READ MORE

2. Multipoint Okounkov bodies, strong topology of ω-plurisubharmonic functions and Kähler-Einstein metrics with prescribed singularities
Abstract : The most classical topic in Kähler Geometry is the study of Kähler-Einstein metrics as solution of complex Monge-Ampère equations. This thesis principally regards the investigation of a strong topology for ω-plurisubharmonic functions on a fixed compact Kähler manifold (X,ω), its connection with complex Monge-Ampère equations with prescribed singularities and the consequent study of singular Kähler-Einstein metrics.

3. Pluripotential-theoretic methods in K-stability and the space of Kähler metrics
Abstract : It is a natural problem, dating back to Calabi, to find canonical metrics on complex manifolds. In the case of polarized compact Kähler manifolds, a natural candidate is a metric with constant scalar curvature (cscK metric). READ MORE

4. Constraints and symmetries in theories of interacting spin-2 fields
Abstract : The Hassan-Rosen bimetric theory describes two interacting spin-2 fields, one massless and one massive. In this thesis, a complete canonical analysis of this theory is performed in the metric formulation and all constraints are computed. READ MORE
