Abstract
Let M be a compact Kähler manifold and N be a subvariety with codimension greater than or equal to 2. We show that there are no complete Kähler–Einstein metrics on M- N. As an application, let E be an exceptional divisor of M. Then M- E cannot admit any complete Kähler–Einstein metric if blow-down of E is a complex variety with only canonical or terminal singularities. A similar result is shown for pairs.
