Abstract: We classify quadruples (M,g,m,au) in which (M,g) is a compact K"ahler manifold of complex dimension m>2 with a nonconstant function au on M such that the conformally related metric g/au2, defined wherever aue0, is Einstein. It turns out that M then is the total space of a holomorphic CP1 bundle over a compact K"ahler-Einstein manifold (N,h). The quadruples in question constitute four disjoint families: one, well-known, with K"ahler metrics g that are locally reducible; a second, discovered by B'erard Bergery (1982), and having aue0 everywhere; a third one, related to the second by a form of analytic continuation, and analogous to some known K"ahler surface metrics; and a fourth family, present only in odd complex dimensions mge9. Our classification uses a {it moduli curve}, which is a subset mathcalC, depending on m, of an algebraic curve in R2. A point (u,v) in mathcalC is naturally associated with any (M,g,m,au) having all of the above properties except for compactness of M, replaced by a weaker requirement of ``vertical compactness. One may in turn reconstruct M,g and au from this (u,v) coupled with some other data, among them a K"ahler-Einstein base (N,h) for the CP1 bundle M. The points (u,v) arising in this way from (M,g,m,au) with compact M form a countably infinite subset of mathcalC.
