Abstract

Using the harmonic superspace formalism, we find the metric of a certain 8-dimensional manifold. This manifold is not compact and represents an 8-dimensional generalization of the Taub-NUT manifold. Our conjecture is that the metric that we derived is equivalent to the known metric possessing a discrete Z2Z_2 isometry, which may be obtained from the metric describing the dynamics of four BPS monopoles by Hamiltonian reduction.
