Hyperkähler manifolds and nonlinear supermultiplets (Q578620)

This paper presents a new construction of hyperkähler metrics that derives from the 3-dimensional \(N=4\) nonlinear supermultiplet. To that end the authors use a modified version of the Legendre transform construction, which has been discussed extensively in an earlier paper [\textit{N. J. Hitchin} and the authors, ibid. 535-589 (1987; Zbl 0612.53043)].
