Abstract: While the existence of a unique K"ahler-Einstein metric on a canonically polarized manifold X was established by Aubin and Yau already in the 70s there are only a few explicit formulas available. In previous work a probabilistic construction of the K"ahler-Einstein metric was introduced - involving canonical random point processes on X - which yields canonical approximations of the K"ahler-Einstein metric, expressed as explicit period integrals over a large number of products of X. Here it is shown that the conjectural extension to the case when X is a Fano variety suggests a zero-free property of the Archimedean zeta functions defined by the partition functions of the probabilistic model. A weaker zero-free property is also shown to be relevant for the Calabi-Yau equation. The convergence in the case of log Fano curves is settled, exploiting relations to the complex Selberg integral in the orbifold case. Some intriguing relations to the zero-free property of the local automorphic L-functions appearing in the Langlands program and arithmetic geometry are also pointed out. These relations also suggest a natural p-adic extension of the probabilistic approach.

Summary: While the existence of a unique Kähler-Einstein metric on a canonically polarized manifold \(X\) was established by Aubin and Yau already in the 70s, there are only a few explicit formulas available. In a previous work, a probabilistic construction of the Kähler-Einstein metric was introduced -- involving canonical random point processes on \(X\) -- which yields canonical approximations of the Kähler-Einstein metric, expressed as explicit period integrals over a large number of products of \(X\). Here it is shown that the conjectural extension to the case when \(X\) is a Fano variety suggests a zero-free property of the Archimedean zeta functions defined by the partition functions of the probabilistic model. A weaker zero-free property is also shown to be relevant for the Calabi-Yau equation. The convergence in the case of log Fano curves is settled, exploiting relations to the complex Selberg integral in the orbifold case. Some intriguing relations to the zero-free property of the local automorphic \(L\)-functions appearing in the Langlands program and arithmetic geometry are also pointed out. These relations also suggest a natural \(p\)-adic extension of the probabilistic approach. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1519.00033].
