A quantization proof of the uniform Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture

Using quantization techniques, we show that the $\delta$-invariant of Fujita-Odaka coincides with the optimal exponent in certain Moser-Trudinger type inequality. Consequently we obtain a uniform Yau-Tian-Donaldson theorem for the existence of twisted K\"ahler-Einstein metrics with arbitrary polarizations. Our approach mainly uses pluripotential theory, which does not involve Cheeger-Colding-Tian theory or the non-Archimedean language. A new computable criterion for the existence of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics is also given.
