One considers a Kähler manifold \(M\), a free Hamiltonian action of the standard \(n\)-torus \(T\) on \(M\) with moment map, \(\Phi: M\to\mathbb{R}^n\), and the symplectic quotient \(M_\lambda= \Phi^{-1}(\lambda)/T\) \((\lambda\in\mathbb{R}^n)\). One describes the Kähler form and Ricci form on coordinate patches in \(M_\lambda\). By using these, one discusses some global implications. One establishes: \(\bullet\) A Kählerian proof of the Duistermaat-Heckman theorem. \(\bullet\) The Biquard-Gauduchon formula for the Kähler potential on a symplectic quotient. \(\bullet\) The convexity theorem of Atyah for moment images of \(T_{\mathbb{C}}\)-orbits. \(\bullet\) The formula, in terms of moment data, for the Kähler metric on a toric variety. \(\bullet\) The formula for the Kähler form on the symplectic quotient of a Kähler-Einstein manifold.
