| Popis: | Given a Kaehler manifold polarised by a holomorphic ample line bundle, we consider the circle bundle associated to the polarisation with the induced transversal holomorphic structure. The space of contact structures compatible with this transversal structure is naturally identified with a bundle, of infinite rank, over the space of Kaehler metrics in the first Chern class of the polarisation. We show that the Einstein-Hilbert functional of the associated Tanaka-Webster connections is a functional on this bundle, whose critical points are constant scalar curvature Sasaki structures. In particular, when the group of automorphisms is discrete, these critical points correspond to constant scalar curvature Kaehler metrics in the first Chern class of the polarisation. We show that the Einstein--Hilbert functional satisfies some monotonicity properties along some one-parameter families of CR-contact structures that are naturally associated to test configurations, and that its limit on the central fibre of a test configuration is related to the Donaldson-Futaki invariant through an expansion in terms of an extra real parameter. As a by-product, we obtain an original proof that the existence of constant scalar curvature Kaehler metrics on a polarized manifold implies K-semistability. We also show that the limit of the Einstein-Hilbert functional on the central fibre coincides with the ratio of the equivariant index characters pole coefficients of the central fibre.
