The Implicit Metric on a Deformation of the Atiyah-Hitchin manifold
نویسنده
چکیده
Using twistor methods we derive a generating function which leads to the hyperkähler metric on a deformation of the Atiyah-Hitchin monopole moduli space. This deformation was first considered by Dancer through the quotient construction and is related to a charge two monopole configuration in a completely broken SU(3) gauge theory. The manifold and metric are the first members of a family of hyperkähler manifolds which are deformations of the Dk rational singularities of C2. E-mail:[email protected]

Atiyah-Hitchin in Five Dimensional Einstein-Maxwell Theory
We construct exact solutions to five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory based on Atiyah-Hitchin space. The solutions cannot be written explicitly in a closed form, so their properties are investigated numerically. The five-dimensional metric is regular everywhere except on the location of original bolt in four-dimensional Atiyah-Hitchin base space. On each time-fixed slices, the metric, asympt...
متن کاملSupersymmetric σ-models, twistors, and the Atiyah-Hitchin metric
The Legendre transform and its generalizations, originally found in supersymmetric σ-models, are techniques that can be used to give local constructions of hyperkähler metrics. We give a twistor space interpretation to the generalizations of the Legendre transform construction. The Atiyah-Hitchin metric on the moduli space of two monopoles is used as a detailed example. email: [email protected]...
متن کاملInversion symmetric 3-monopoles and the Atiyah-Hitchin manifold
We consider 3-monopoles symmetric under inversion symmetry. We show that the moduli space of these monopoles is an Atiyah-Hitchin submanifold of the 3monopole moduli space. This allows what is known about 2-monopole dynamics to be translated into results about the dynamics of 3-monopoles. Using a numerical ADHMN construction we compute the monopole energy density at various points on two intere...
متن کاملBounded Geodesics for the Atiyah-hitchin Metric
The Atiyah-Hitchin metric has bounded geodesies which describe bound states of a monopole pair. Introduction. The dynamics of two nonrelativistic BPS monopoles was described by Manton [1] as the geodesic flow on the space of collective coordinates of the monopoles M$ with a special metric found explicitly by Atiyah and Hitchin [2]. Gibbons and Manton [3] studied the asymptotic metric (the Taub-...
متن کاملThe Metric on the Space of Yang-mills Configurations
A distance function on the set of physical equivalence classes of Yang-Mills configurations considered by Feynman and by Atiyah, Hitchin and Singer is studied for both the 2 + 1 and 3 + 1-dimensional Hamiltonians. This set equipped with this distance function is a metric space, and in fact a Riemannian manifold as Singer observed. Furthermore, this manifold is complete. Gauge configurations can...
