Abstract

We classify all Kahler metrics in an open subset of C2 whose real geodesics are circles. All such metrics are equivalent (via complex projective transformations) to Fubini metrics (i.e. to Fubini-Study metric on CP2 restricted to an affine chart, to the complex hyperbolic metric in the unit ball model or to the Euclidean metric).
