4 The limit of the derivative of the K energy
In last section, we get a explicit formula of td
dtM(t). Here, we are going to compute the limit lim
t→0td
dtM(t) in Theorem 3.4. In order to do this, we need some combinatoric techniques first.
Let (δi, σi), i = 0, · · · , p, be a sequence of pair of nonnegative rational numbers.
Let δ0 = 0. We assume that the sequence is “generic” in the sence that
1. All δi, i = 0, · · · , p, are distinct numbers. Hence, each δi, i = 1, · · · , p, is positive rational number.
2. Define the line ξi(x) = δi+ σix, i = 0, · · · , p. None of three such lines intersect at the same point.
Now, suppose (δi, σi), i = 0, · · · , p, are generic, define (ik, rk), k = 0, · · · , m, by induction as follows: let i0 = 0, r0 = 0. If (ik, rk) has been defined, then
1. If for any r > rk
δik+ σikr < δi+ σir, i 6= ik, then let m = k and stop.
2. If not, then define ik+1 and rk+1> rk such that
δik+ σikrk+1= δik+1 + σik+1rk+1 ≤ δi+ σirk+1, (4.1) where i = 1, · · · , p. Note that (ik, rk), k = 0, · · · , m, are unique definite since (δi, σi), i = 0, · · · , p, are generic.
From the process above, we have the obvious.

Remark. (ik, rk), k = 0, 1, · · · , is a finite sequence. In particular, the sequence stop at (im, rm). Indeed, by the construction of ik0s, we have
σi0 > σi1 > · · · > σik > · · · .
Hence all ik0s must be distinct. Since 0 ≤ ik ≤ p, we have at most p + 1 distinct ik0s. The second statement follows from the first item of the construction above.
Let
ξ(x) = min
i≥0(δi+ σix). (4.2)
The function ξ(x) is a piecewise linear function, which be non-smooth at rk, k = 1, · · · , m. And the function ξ(x) is differentiable almost everywhere.

The sequence (δi, α(i)k ), i = 0, · · · , p, k = 0, · · · , n, be the pair of nonnegative rational numbers which satisfies
1. All δi, i = 0, · · · , p, are distinct;
2. None of the three lines defined by δi+ α(i)k x for i = 0, · · · , p, intersect at the same point, where k = 0, · · · , n.
So we may assume that the choice of (λ0, · · · , λn) is generic. Without loss of generality, we may assume that a0 = 1, and 0 = δ0 < δ1 < · · · < δp. We also assume that a1, · · · , ap are all nonzero. Moreover, since M is smooth, we see that for each 0 ≤ k ≤ n, there is an 0 ≤ i ≤ p such that α(i)k = 0.

Then ∪Ui = CPn. Let Pi = {Zi = 0} and Pij = Pi∩ Pj for i 6= j and i, j = 0, · · · , n.
Let σ > 0 be chosen so that σ < 1 dmin
i≥1(δi). Let d(· , ·) be the distance induced by the Fubini-Study metric ω on CPn, and define
Vijt = {z ∈ CPn
d(z , Pij) < |t|σ}, i 6= j, i, j = 0, · · · , n.

one can find a unique l 6= k such that
Zl Zk

For the uniqueness, suppose there are l, m 6= k such that
Zl Zk

for t small enough, then [Z0, · · · , Zn] ∈ Vlmt . This is a contradiction. So we are
done. q
Now, we will prove that for t small enough, the connected component of Mt\ ∪ni,j=1Vijt are graphs of functions over ˜Pi, where
P˜i = Pi−[
j6=i

In order to do this, we first let Qi = {[Z0, · · · , Zn]
[Z0, · · · , Zi−1, 0
i, Zi+1, · · · , Zn] ∈ ˜Pi}, for i = 0, · · · , n. By the setting (1.4) and (1.5) in first section, we have

0≤i≤p(δ + δi + α(i)0 x0+ · · · + α(i)n xn), (4.8) and
ψk(x) = min
0≤i≤p(δ + δi+ α(i)k x), (4.9)
for k = 0, · · · , n.
Lemma 4.3 For σ > 0 small enough, there is a constant ε0 > 0 such that the solutions of z1 of f = 0 satisfies
|z1− ϕki| ≤ |ϕki||t|ε0
for i = 1, · · · , α(i1k)− α(i1k+1), k = 0, · · · , m − 1. Furthermore, the balls Bik = {z ∈ C
|z − ϕki| ≤ |ϕki||t|ε0} for i = 1, · · · , α(i1k)− α(i1k+1), k = 0, · · · , m − 1, do not intersect each other if t small enough.

with a0 = 1 and δ0 = 0. The sequence (δi, α1(i)), i = 0, · · · , p, is assumed to be a generic sequence.
For (z1, · · · , zn) ∈ ˜P1∩ U0, we have
|z1| ≥ |t|σ,
for i = 2, · · · , n. The indices i and k are always set by i = 1, · · · , α1(ik)− α(i1k+1), k = 0, · · · , m − 1, in this proof, unless otherwise stated. We choose ε1 > 0 such that
ε1 < min

|t|δ|gk| ≤ |t|ψ1(rk+1)+ε1−dσ on Bik and
|t|δ|fk| ≥ |t|ψ1(rk+1)+ε0+dσ
on ∂Bki. We choose σ and ε0 small enough such that ε1− dσ > 3
4ε1 and ε0 ≤ 1 4ε1. So we have dσ < 1
4ε1, and then
|fk| ≥ |t|ψ1(rk+1)−δ+ε0+dσ > |t|ψ1(rk+1)−δ+ε0+ 1 4ε1

on ∂Bik. By the Rouch´e Theorem, fk and f have the same number of solutions in Bik. Since fk has only one solution in Bik, there is only one solution z1 of f = 0 satisfies
|z1− ϕki| ≤ |ϕki||t|ε0. Suppose there are two balls Bik and Bik1
1 such that Bik ∩ Bik1
1 6= φ, then for each z ∈ Bik∩ Bki11, we have
|ϕki − ϕki1
1| ≤ |ϕki − z| + |z − ϕki1
1| ≤ |t|ε0(|ϕki| + |ϕki1
1|).
Since t small enough, we have
|ϕki − ϕki1
1| < 1
2max{|ϕki|, |ϕki1
1|}.
Say, |ϕki| < |ϕki11|. This means Bik ⊂ Bik11, we get a contradiction. So if t is small

P roof . In this proof, we omit the constants in an inequality for convenience. So A ≤ B means there is a constant C independent of t such that A ≤ CB. It suffices to prove the case i = 1 because the proof of other cases are similarly. If α(0)1 = 0, then ϕ01 ≡ 0, so the proposition holds automatically. Now we assume that α1(0)≥ 1, and we only prove this property on Mt∩ Q1∩ U0.
For the sake of simplicity, let F = Ft. As the setting in Lemma 4.3, the indices i, k are always running in i = 1, · · · , α1(ik)−α(i1k+1), k = 0, · · · , m−1, unless otherwise
