Abstract

Due to its rich structure and close connection with gauge theory, hyperk\"ahler manifolds have attracted increasing interest. Using infinite dimensional hyperk\"ahler reduction, Kronheimer proved that certain adjoint orbits of complexified semisimple Lie algebras admits hyperk\"ahler structures. Later on, Xu obtained a proof for the existence of hyperk\"ahler structures on adjoint orbits of $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{C})$ from the viewpoint of symplectic geometry. This paper aims to thoroughly investigate and elucidate the key differences as well as the underlying connections between two distinct construction methods.
