Degenerate Complex Monge–ampère Equations Over Compact Kähler Manifolds

We prove the existence and uniqueness of the solutions of some very general type of degenerate complex Monge–Ampère equations, and investigate their regularity. These types of equations are precisely what is needed in order to construct Kähler–Einstein metrics over irreducible singular Kähler spaces with ample or trivial canonical sheaf and singular Kähler–Einstein metrics over varieties of general type.
