  • First Online:

Abstract

We develop some analytical foundations for the study of Kähler metrics with cone singularities in codimension one. The main result is an analogue of the Schauder theory in this setting. In the later parts of the paper we discuss connections with the existence problem for Kähler–Einstein metrics,in the positive case.
