Abstract

We give some non-existence results for Kähler-Einstein metrics with conical singularities along a divisor on Fano manifolds. In particular, we show that the maximal possible cone angle is in general smaller than the invariant $R(M)$. We study this discrepancy from the point of view of log $K$-stability.
