Explains hyperkähler manifolds and their properties.

Promotes Poisson deformations to hyperkähler structures.

A hyperKähler potential is a function rho that is a Kähler potential for each complex structure compatible with the hyperKähler structure. Nilpotent orbits in a complex simple Lie algebra are known to carry hyperKähler metrics admitting such potentials. In this paper, we explicitly calculate the hyperKähler potential w…

This paper explores hyperkähler structures on specific orbits using different methods.

In this survey article we describe the geometry of toric hyperkähler varieties, which are hyperkähler quotients of the quaternionic vector spaces by tori. In particular, we discuss the Betti numbers, the cohomology ring, and variation of hyperkähler structures of these spaces with many improved results and proofs.

Study on stability of hyperkähler flow in 4-manifolds.

New HyperKahler structure found for 3-contact distributions on Sasakian manifolds.

We discuss various aspects of moment map geometry in symplectic and hyperKähler geometry. In particular, we classify complete hyperKähler manifolds of dimension $4n$ with a tri-Hamiltonian action of a torus of dimension $n$, without any assumption on the finiteness of the Betti numbers. As a result we find that the hyp…

New gauge-theoretic construction of 4D hyperkähler ALE spaces.

The study proves curvature bounds for hyperkähler manifolds.

Study collapsing geometry of hyperkähler 4-manifolds and prove conjectures.

It is known that nilpotent orbits in a complex simple Lie algebra admit hyperKähler metrics with a single function that is a global potential for each of the Kähler structures (a hyperKähler potential). In an earlier paper the authors showed that nilpotent orbits in classical Lie algebras can be constructed as finite-d…

Extends parabolic study to flat hyperkähler manifolds.

Parabolic automorphisms on hyperkahler manifolds act ergodically on fibers.

Let O be a nilpotent orbit in g^C where G is a compact, simple group and g=Lie(G). It is known that O carries a unique G-invariant hyperKähler metric admitting a hyperKähler potential compatible with the Kirillov-Kostant-Souriau symplectic form. In this work, the hyperKähler potential is explicitly calculated when O is…

The paper generalizes hyperkahler metrics near Lagrangian submanifolds.

Hyperkahler quotients by non-free actions are typically highly singular, but are remarkably still partitioned into smooth hyperkahler manifolds. We show that these partitions are topological stratifications, in a strong sense. We also endow the quotients with global Poisson structures which induce the hyperkahler struc…

Study proves long-term solutions to a specific equation on hyperKähler manifolds.

Rozansky and Witten proposed a 3-dimensional sigma-model whose target space is a hyperkähler manifold. They conjectured that this theory has an associated TQFT, with Hilbert spaces given by certain cohomology groups of the hyperkähler manifold. On the other hand, there is a certain modified TQFT constructed by Murakami…

Study surjectivity of Kirwan map for generalized hyperkähler reduction.

We introduce an analogue in hyperkahler geometry of the symplectic implosion, in the case of SU(n) actions. Our space is a stratified hyperkahler space which can be defined in terms of quiver diagrams. It also has a description as a non-reductive geometric invariant theory quotient.

Proves C^2,alpha estimates for elliptic equations on hyperkähler manifolds.

Solves a conjecture about hyperKähler manifolds using quaternionic Monge-Ampère equation.

Under the action of the c-map, special Kahler manifolds are mapped into a class of quaternion-Kahler spaces. We explicitly construct the corresponding Swann bundle or hyperkahler cone, and determine the hyperkahler potential in terms of the prepotential of the special Kahler geometry.

The paper describes hyperkähler geometry of cotangent bundles using rank-1 projections.

In this paper we propose and investigate in full generality new notions of (continuous, non-isometric) symmetry on hyperkähler spaces. These can be grouped into two categories, corresponding to the two basic types of continuous hyperkähler isometries which they deform: tri-Hamiltonian isometries, on one hand, and rotat…

We give an equivalent definition of compact locally conformally hyperkähler manifolds in terms of the existence of a nondegenerate complex two-form with natural properties. This is a conformal analogue of Beauville's theorem stating that a compact Kähler manifold admitting a holomorphic symplectic form is hyperkähler.

Let S be an infinite-dimensional manifold of all symplectic, or hyperkahler, structures on a compact manifold M, and $Diff_0$ the connected component of its diffeomorphism group. The quotient $S/\Diff_0$ is called the Teichmuller space of symplectic (or hyperkahler) structures on M. MBM classes on a hyperkahler manifol…

Study shows no hyperkähler fourfolds in specified conditions.

A weight system on graph homology was constructed by Rozansky and Witten using a compact hyperkähler manifold. A variation of this construction utilizing holomorphic vector bundles over the manifold gives a weight system on chord diagrams. We investigate these weights from the hyperkähler geometry point of view.

We study singular hyperkahler quotients of the cotangent bundle of a complex semisimple Lie group as stratified spaces whose strata are hyperkahler. We focus on one particular case where the stratification satisfies the frontier condition and the partial order on the set of strata can be described explicitly by Lie the…

New minimal 2-spheres found in hyperkähler 4-manifolds, unstable and not holomorphic.

Solves long-time solutions for a specific equation on hyperkähler manifolds.

We study an infinite-dimensional hyperkähler reduction introduced by Donaldson and associated with the constant scalar curvature equation on a Riemann surface. It is known that the corresponding moment map equations admit special solutions constructed from holomorphic quadratic differentials. Here we obtain a more gene…

We introduce the notion of hypersymplectic structure on a Courant algebroid and we prove the existence of a one-to-one correspondence between hypersymplectic and hyperkähler structures. This correspondence provides a simpler way to define a hyperkähler structure on a Courant algebroid. We show that hypersymplectic stru…

The paper proves a smooth Birman-Hilden theorem for hyperkähler manifolds.

In this paper, the HyperKahler contact distribution of a 3-Sasakian manifold is studied. To analyze the curvature properties of this distribution, the special metric connection $\bar{\nabla}$ is defined. This metric connection is completely determined by HyperKahler contact distribution. We prove that HyperKahler conta…

We discuss hypercomplex and hyperkähler structures obtained from higher degree curves in complex spaces fibring over ${\mathbb{P}}^1$.

We study relations between quaternionic Riemannian manifolds admitting different types of symmetries. We show that any hyperKahler manifold admitting hyperKahler potential and triholomorphic action of S^1 can be constructed from another hyperKahler manifold (of lower dimention) with an action of S^1 which fixes one com…
