Projectively induced Kähler cones over regular Sasakian manifolds

Motivated by a conjecture in Loi et al. (Math Zeit 290:599–613, 2018) we prove that the Kähler cone over a regular complete Sasakian manifold is Ricci-flat and projectively induced if and only if it is flat. We also obtain that, up to Da—homothetic transformations, Kähler cones over homogeneous compact Sasakian manifolds are projectively induced. As main tool we provide a relation between the Kähler potentials of the transverse Kähler metric and of the cone metric.
