Hyperkähler manifold
Summary
A hyperkähler manifold is a Riemannian manifold that is Kähler with respect to three complex structures , , that multiply like the quaternion units. Its dimension is a multiple of , and its holonomy group lies in the compact symplectic group . Hyperkähler manifolds are Ricci-flat, and they are one of the special holonomy cases in Berger's list. Examples include K3 surfaces with their Ricci-flat metrics and many moduli spaces from gauge theory.
