Lemma 16.9.703FCA1AB2751

Lemma 16.9.7.03FCA1AB2751 Suppose that $\varphi ,\psi \in \mathrm{PSH}(X,\theta )$ and $\varphi \preceq _ P \psi $. Then

\[ d_ S(\varphi ,\psi )=\frac{1}{n+1}\sum _{j=0}^ n \left(\int _ X \theta _{\psi }^ j\wedge \theta _{V_{\theta }}^{n-j}-\int _ X \theta _{\varphi }^ j\wedge \theta _{V_{\theta }}^{n-j}\right). \]

Proof. Set $\chi \coloneqq \varphi \lor \psi $. By 16.8.13, we have $\chi \sim _ P\psi $. Hence proposition 16.9.6 gives $d_ S(\chi ,\psi )=0$, and the pseudometric property gives

\[ d_ S(\varphi ,\psi )=d_ S(\varphi ,\chi ). \]

Since $\varphi \leq \chi $, (17.10.94) and proposition 17.10.83 give

\[ d_ S(\varphi ,\chi )=\frac{1}{n+1}\sum _{j=0}^ n \left(\int _ X \theta _{\chi }^ j\wedge \theta _{V_{\theta }}^{n-j}-\int _ X \theta _{\varphi }^ j\wedge \theta _{V_{\theta }}^{n-j}\right). \]

Finally, proposition 16.8.7 applied to $\psi \leq \chi $ gives

\[ \int _ X \theta _{\chi }^ j\wedge \theta _{V_{\theta }}^{n-j}=\int _ X \theta _{\psi }^ j\wedge \theta _{V_{\theta }}^{n-j} \]

for all $j=0,\ldots ,n$. $\square$
