Joyce's coadjoint-orbit conjecture for hyperkähler structures
Let be a compact Lie group with Lie algebra , let be its complexification, and let be the data defining the examples associated to . Denote the resulting HP-algebra and space by and , respectively. Coadjoint-orbit conjecture. The assumption in Example 4.3 always holds; the HP-algebra determines a hyperkähler structure on a dense open subset of ; these structures include all the structures of Kronheimer, Biquard, and Kovalev as special cases, while generically they are new and do not coincide with those structures. For some , is a cone in and is an SGH-algebra, so is a hyperkähler cone; these are the nilpotent orbits of Kronheimer. For every there is a such that is a nilpotent orbit, the associated graded H-algebra of is , and the singular hyperkähler manifold has an AC end with asymptotic cone . The conjecture proposes an algebraic description of the coadjoint-orbit hyperkähler metrics constructed by Kronheimer, Biquard, and Kovalev; the supplied context says it was proved for Kronheimer's metrics but remained unproved for the metrics of Biquard and Kovalev.
