12.25.10 Equality of orders under modificationsA34399DFCD46

By proposition 12.22.5, pulling back by a modification can only increase the orders. For the fixed cone, the orders are preserved.

Proposition 12.25.11.57BC641DA62E Replacing some plain factors by linear blowups as above preserves the order of every background in the fixed cone. More generally, for every modification $\pi :Y\to X$ with $Y$ a compact Kähler manifold, the pullback $\pi ^*\theta $ has common order $n-R(\theta )$, and satisfies two-sided power bounds with this exponent for every smooth positive probability form and every Hermitian perturbation on $Y$.

Proof. For a product of linear blowups, pull back the coefficient functions and take the new coefficients of the forms $Q_ i$ to be zero. A form $H_ i$ that occurs on a plain factor becomes a form $H_ i$ that occurs on a blown-up factor, with the same rank $m_ i$, and factors in which nothing occurs remain so. Hence theorem 12.25.8, applied on both products, gives the same order.

For a general compact Kähler manifold $Y$, pull back the semipositive smooth remainders and the divisor identities used in the proof above. Each nonzero holomorphic section remains nonzero under the surjective map $\pi $, and the logarithm of the squared norm of its pullback is locally integrable, with $\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}$ equal to the current of its effective zero divisor minus the pulled-back curvature. Hence

\[ \pi ^*\theta \leq C\pi ^*B_\theta ,\qquad \pi ^*\theta +\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}(\varphi \circ \pi )\geq c\pi ^*B_\theta . \]

Fix a Kähler form $\Omega _ Y$ on $Y$, and apply the first part of lemma 12.25.1, which needs no rank hypothesis; the pulled-back background is semipositive and hence nef. Put $R=R(\theta )$. Pullback does not increase rank, so $(\pi ^*B_\theta )^{R+1}=0$, while

\[ \int _ Y(\pi ^*B_\theta )^ R\wedge \Omega _ Y^{n-R}>0: \]

for $R>0$ the integrand is positive on the nonempty set where $\pi $ is biholomorphic, and for $R=0$ the integral is the Kähler volume. For any smooth positive probability form $\mu _ Y$, the closed nef formula following theorem 12.11.1 gives

\[ \mathcal V_{\mu _ Y}(\pi ^*B_\theta +\epsilon \Omega _ Y) =\sum _{k=0}^{R}\binom nk\epsilon ^{n-k} \int _ Y(\pi ^*B_\theta )^ k\wedge \Omega _ Y^{n-k}. \]

All coefficients are nonnegative and the coefficient for $k=R$ is positive, so this polynomial is bounded above and below by positive multiples of $\epsilon ^{n-R}$ for $0<\epsilon \leq 1$. The comparison of quotients gives the same bounds for $\pi ^*\theta +\epsilon h_ Y$. In particular, the order upstairs equals the order downstairs. $\square$
