Let $X$ be a compact Kähler manifold and $\{\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}\}$ be a big cohomology class. We prove several results about the singularity type of full mass currents, answering a number of open questions in the field. First, we show that the Lelong numbers and multiplier ideal sheaves of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}$-plurisubharmonic functions with full mass are the same as those of a current with minimal singularities. Second, given another big and nef class $\{\unicode[STIX]{x1D702}\}$, we show the inclusion ${\mathcal{E}}(X,\unicode[STIX]{x1D702})\cap \operatorname{PSH}(X,\unicode[STIX]{x1D703})\subset {\mathcal{E}}(X,\unicode[STIX]{x1D703})$. Third, we characterize big classes whose full mass currents are ‘additive’. Our techniques make use of a characterization of full mass currents in terms of the envelope of their singularity type. As an essential ingredient we also develop the theory of weak geodesics in big cohomology classes. Numerous applications of our results to complex geometry are also given.

In this paper, we consider a generalized Kähler–Einstein equation on a Kähler manifold $M$. Using the twisted $\mathcal{K}$–energy introduced by Song and Tian, we show that the existence of generalized Kähler–Einstein metrics with semi–positive twisting (1, 1)–form $\theta$ is also closely related to the properness of the twisted $\mathcal{K}$-energy functional. Under the condition that the twisting form $\theta$ is strictly positive at a point or $M$ admits no nontrivial Hamiltonian holomorphic vector field, we prove that the existence of generalized Kähler–Einstein metric implies a Moser–Trudinger type inequality.

It is proved that solutions of the complex Monge–Ampère equation on compact Kähler manifolds with right hand side in Lp, p > 1, are uniformly Hölder continuous under the assumption on non-negative orthogonal bisectional curvature.

We introduce certain energy functionals to complex Monge–Ampère equations over bounded domains with inhomogeneous boundary conditions, and use these functionals to show the convergence of solutions to certain parabolic Monge–Ampère equations.
