Recently [A. Loi showed that][1]

Let$ (M, ω) $ be a homogeneous Kahler manifold. Then the following
are equivalent:

(a)$ M$ is contractible.

(b)$ (M, ω)$ admits a global Kahler potential.

(c) $(M, ω) $admits a Berezin quantization.






If $\omega$ is a real  $d$-exact $(1,1)$-form, then $\omega$ is $\sqrt{-1}∂∂$-exact , i.e. there exits a real
function $u$ such that locally $\omega = i∂∂u$

In general Gauduchon showed that for a compact complex manifold $M$, $dd^c$
-lemma for $(1, 1)$-forms
is equivalent to the equality $b^1 = 2h^{0,1}$.

**In Sasakian cone we have global Kahler potential:**

A compact Riemannian manifold $(S,g)$ is Sasakian if and only if its metric cone $(C(S)=R_{>0}\times S, \bar g=dr^2+r^2g)$ is Kahler. which Sasakian manifolds are the odd dimentional view of Kahler manifolds

Then if $S$ be Sasakian, then the cone $C(S)$ has 

$$\omega=\frac{1}{2}\sqrt {-1}\partial\bar\partial r^2$$

the function $\frac{1}{2}r^2$ is hence a **global Kahler potential** for the cone metric
