Abstract: We introduce a notion of a K"ahler metric with constant weighted scalar curvature on a compact K"ahler manifold X, depending on a fixed real torus mathbbT in the reduced group of automorphisms of X, and two smooth (weight) functions mathrmv>0 and mathrmw, defined on the momentum image (with respect to a given K"ahler class alpha on X) of X in the dual Lie algebra of mathbbT. A number of natural problems in K"ahler geometry, such as the existence of extremal K"ahler metrics and conformally K"ahler, Einstein--Maxwell metrics, or prescribing the scalar curvature on a compact toric manifold reduce to the search of K"ahler metrics with constant weighted scalar curvature in a given K"ahler class alpha, for special choices of the weight functions mathrmv and mathrmw. We show that a number of known results obstructing the existence of constant scalar curvature K"ahler (cscK) metrics can be extended to the weighted setting. In particular, we introduce a functional mathcalMmathrmv,mathrmw on the space of mathbbT-invariant K"ahler metrics in alpha, extending the Mabuchi energy in the cscK case, and show (following the arguments of Li and Sano--Tipler in the cscK and extremal cases) that if alpha is Hodge, then constant weighted scalar curvature metrics in alpha are minima of mathcalMmathrmv,mathrmw. Motivated by the recent work of Dervan--Ross and Dyrefelt in the cscK and extremal cases, we define a (mathrmv,mathrmw)-weighted Futaki invariant of a mathbbT-compatible smooth K"ahler test configuration associated to (X,alpha,mathbbT), and show that the boundedness from below of the (mathrmv,mathrmw)-weighted Mabuchi functional mathcalMmathrmv,mathrmw implies a suitable notion of a (mathrmv,mathrmw)-weighted K-semistability.
