Abstract

The aim of this note is to describe the geometry of C2\mathbb{C}^2 equipped with a K\"{a}hler metric defined by Warren. It is shown that with that metric C2\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.
