Abstract
Building on an idea laid out by Martelli--Sparks--Yau, we use the Duistermaat-Heckman localization formula and an extension of it to give rational and explicit expressions of the volume, the total transversal scalar curvature and the Einstein--Hilbert functional, seen as functionals on the Sasaki cone (Reeb cone). Studying the leading terms we prove they are all proper. Among consequences we get that the Einstein-Hilbert functional attains its minimal value and each Sasaki cone possess at least one Reeb vector field with vanishing transverse Futaki invariant.
