Abstract

In this paper, we study Mabuchi's K-energy on a compactification M of a reductive Lie group G, which is a complexification of its maximal compact subgroup K. We give a criterion for the properness of K-energy on the space of K×K-invariant Kähler potentials. In particular, it turns to give an alternative proof of Delcroix's theorem for the existence of Kähler–Einstein metrics in case of Fano manifolds M. We also study the existence of minimizers of K-energy for general Kähler classes of M.
