The geometry of $\mathbb{C}^2$ equipped with Warren's metric

Abstract

The aim of this note is to describe the geometry of $\mathbb{C}^2$ equipped with a K\"{a}hler metric defined by Warren. It is shown that with that metric $\mathbb{C}^2$ is a flat manifold. Explicit formulae for geodesics and volume of geodesic ball are also computed. Finally, a family of similar flat metrics is constructed.
