Abstract:
This is Part II of a two-lecture series on Nahm's equations.
These two lectures will survey the theory of Nahm's equations and their various hyperkähler moduli spaces, focusing on the case of bounded intervals. In particular, I will review Kronheimer's result that the moduli space of solutions to Nahm's equations on a compact interval gives a hyperkähler structure on the cotangent bundle of a complex reductive group, and also discuss Nahm's equations with poles.
