Abstract: This is the first in a series of two papers studying mu-cscK metrics and muK-stability, from a new perspective evoked from observations in arXiv:2004.06393 and in this first article. The first paper is about a characterization of mu-cscK metrics in terms of Perelman's W-entropy $check{W}^{l}ambda$. We regard Perelman's W-entropy as a functional on the tangent bundle $TmathcalH(X,L)$ of the space $mathcalH(X,L)$ of K"ahler metrics in a given K"ahler class $L$. The critical points of $check{W}^{l}ambda$ turn out to be $m{u}^{l}ambda$-cscK metrics. When $lambdale0$, the supremum along the fibres gives a smooth functional on $mathcalH(X,L)$, which we call mu-entropy. Then $m{u}^{l}ambda$-cscK metrics are also characterized as critical points of this functional, similarly as extremal metric is characterized as the critical points of Calabi functional. We also prove the W-entropy is monotonic along geodesics, following Berman--Berndtsson's subharmonicity argument. Studying the limit of the W-entropy, we obtain a lower bound of the mu-entropy. This bound is not just analogous, but indeed related to Donaldson's lower bound on Calabi functional by the extremal limit $lambdao-infty$.
