The unheaded definitions use the complex structure $J$ on the real tangent bundle. Compatibility means $g(Ju,Jv)=g(u,v)$. Its fundamental Hermitian form is $\omega (u,v)=g(Ju,v)$; the compatibility identity makes this real, alternating and of type $(1,1)$. The metric is a Kähler metric precisely when $d\omega =0$. In complex dimension one a real three-form is zero, so every compatible metric is a Kähler metric.

Now assume closedness and prove the Kähler normal holomorphic coordinates condition. Start with holomorphic coordinates $w$ centered at the point and make a complex-linear change so that the positive Hermitian coefficient matrix satisfies $h(0)=I$. Closedness of the $(1,1)$ form givesDefine $a_{i\bar{j},k}={\partial }_{w_k}{h}_{i\bar{j}}(0)$; it is symmetric in $i,k$. Choose new coordinates implicitly byThe derivative of this holomorphic map at zero is the identity, so the holomorphic inverse function theorem makes $z$ valid local coordinates. In the new coordinates,At zero, $h^{\prime }=I$, and differentiating givesHermitian symmetry makes all antiholomorphic first derivatives zero as well. Taylor's theorem for a smooth function now yieldsThus condition (a) implies condition (b), with the exact factor $i/2$ in the fundamental-form convention retained.
