Complex Monge-Ampe?re equations have been one of the most powerful tools in Ka?hler geometry since Aubin and Yau's classical works, culminating in Yau's solution to the Calabi conjecture. A notable application is the construction of Ka?hler-Einstein metrics on some compact Ka?hler manifolds. In recent years degenerate complex Monge-Ampe?re equations have been intensively studied, requiring more advanced tools. The main goal of this book is to give a self-contained presentation of the recent developments of pluripotential theory on compact Ka?hler manifolds and its application to Ka?hler-Einstein metrics on mildly singular varieties. After reviewing basic properties of plurisubharmonic functions, Bedford-Taylor's local theory of complex Monge-Ampe?re measures is developed. In order to solve degenerate complex Monge-Ampe?re equations on compact Ka?hler manifolds, fine properties of quasi-plurisubharmonic functions are explored, classes of finite energies defined and various maximum principles established. After proving Yau's celebrated theorem as well as its recent generalizations, the results are then used to solve the (singular) Calabi conjecture and to construct (singular) Ka?hler-Einstein metrics on some varieties with mild singularities. The book is accessible to advanced students and researchers of complex analysis and differential geometry. 606 $aComplex analysis$2bicssc 606 $aSeveral complex variables and analytic spaces$2msc 615 07$aComplex analysis 615 07$aSeveral complex variables and analytic spaces 676 $a515.9 686 $a32-xx$2msc 700 $aGuedj$b Vincent$0524796 702 $aZeriahi$b Ahmed 801 0$bch0018173 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910157636803321 996 $aDegenerate Complex Monge-Ampe?re Equations$92564449 997 $aUNINA
