Abstract
We investigate the effect of an incipient ferrolectric transition on vertex corrections to the superconducting pairing interaction. The vertex correct ions for small momentum transfers are largely independent of the type of bo son responsible for the superconducting transition. The electron-phonon int eraction is found to be enhanced by a nearly ferroelectric medium. We discu ss application to the cuprate superconductors.
