Abstract
The requirement that a (non-Einstein) K\"ahler metric in any given complex dimension be almost-everywhere conformally Einstein turns out to be much more restrictive, even locally, than in the case of complex surfaces. The local biholomorphic-isometry types of such metrics depend, for each , on three real parameters along with an arbitrary K\"ahler-Einstein metric in complex dimension . We provide an explicit description of all these local-isometry types, for any given . That result is derived from a more general local classification theorem for metrics admitting functions we call {\it special K\"ahler-Ricci potentials}.
