Abstract

We represent algebraic curves via commuting matrix polynomials. This allows us to show that the Hilbert scheme of cohomologically stable twisted rational curves of degree dd in P3\P1{\Bbb P}^3\backslash {\Bbb P}^1 is isomorphic to a complexified hyperk\"ahler quotient of an open subset of a vector space by a non-reductive Lie group.
