The Bochner tensor is the K\"ahler analogue of the conformal Weyl tensor. In this article, we derive local (i.e., in a neighbourhood of almost every point) normal forms for a (pseudo-)K\"ahler manifold with vanishing Bochner tensor. The…

The very definition of an Einstein metric implies that all its geometry is encoded in the Weyl tensor. With this in mind, in this paper we derive higher-order Bochner type formulas for the Weyl tensor on a four dimensional Einstein…
