Height on GIT quotients and Kempf-Ness theory

In this paper we study heights on quotient varieties in the sense of Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT). We generalise a construction of Burnol and we generalise diverse lower bounds of the height of semi-stable points due to Bost, Zhang, Gasbarri and Chen. In order to prove Burnol's formula for the height on the quotient we develop a Kempf-Ness theory in the setting of Berkovich analytic spaces, completing the former work of Burnol.
