On hyper-Kähler manifolds of type \(A_ \infty\) (Q1331639)

A hyper-Kähler manifold is a Riemannian manifold equipped with three complex structures \(i,j,k\) satisfying the quaternionic relations, such that the metric is Kähler for each of these complex structures. In this paper a family of noncompact hyper-Kähler manifolds is obtained using an infinite dimensional hyper-Kähler quotient construction. Their geometric and topological properties are studied, and are related to those of other hyper-Kähler quotients constructed by Kronheimer and others.
