On K\"ahler conformal compactifications of U(n)-invariant ALE spaces

We prove that a certain class of ALE spaces always has a Kahler conformal compactification, and moreover provide explicit formulas for the conformal factor and the Kahler potential of said compactification. We then apply this to give a new and simple construction of the canonical Bochner-K\"ahler metric on certain weighted projective spaces, and also to explicitly construct a family Kahler edge-cone metrics on $\mathbb{CP}^2$, with singular set $\mathbb{CP}^1$, having cone angles $2\pi\beta$ for all $\beta>0$. We conclude by discussing how these results can be used to obtain certain well-known Einstein metrics.
