Abstract

Let (X,ω)(X, \omega) be a conical symplectic variety of dimension 2n2n which has a projective symplectic resolution. Assume that XX admits an effective Hamiltonian action of an nn-dimensional algebraic torus TnT^n, compatible with the conical C\mathbf{C}^*-action. A typical example of XX is a toric hyperkahler variety Y(A,0)Y(A,0). In this article, we prove that this property characterizes Y(A,0)Y(A,0) with AA unimodular. More precisely, if (X,ω)(X, \omega) is such a conical symplectic variety, then there is a TnT^n-equivariant (complex analytic) isomorphism φ:(X,ω)(Y(A,0),ωY(A,0))\varphi: (X, \omega) \to (Y(A,0), \omega_{Y(A,0)}) under which both moment maps are identified. Moreover φ\varphi sends the center 0X0_X of XX to the center 0Y(A,0)0_{Y(A,0)} of Y(A,0)Y(A,0).
