Structure "Hyper-Lie Poisson"

Abstract

The main purpose of the paper is to study hyperkahler structures from the viewpoint of symplectic geometry. We introduce a notion of hypersymplectic structures which encompasses that of hyperkahler structures. Motivated by the work of Kronheimer on (co)adjoint orbits of semi-simple Lie algebras, we define hyper-Lie Poisson structures associated with a compact semi-simple Lie algebra and give criterion which implies their existence. We study an explicit example of a hyper-Lie Poisson structure, in which the moduli spaces of solutions to Nahm's equations assocaited to Lie algebra $\frak{su}(2)$ are realized as hypersymplectic leaves and are related to the (co)adjoint orbits of $\frak{sl}(2, \complex)$.
