Trivializations of moment maps

We study various trivializations of moment maps. First in the general framework of a reductive group $G$ acting on a smooth affine variety. We prove that the moment map is a locally trivial fibration over a regular locus of the center of the Lie algebra of $H$ a maximal compact subgroup of $G$. The construction relies on Kempf-Ness theory and Morse theory of the square norm of the moment map studied by Kirwan, Ness-Mumford and Sjamaar. Then we apply it together with ideas from Nakajima and Kronheimer to trivialize the hyperkaehler moment map for Nakajima quiver varieties. Notice this trivialization result about quiver varieties was known and used by experts such as Nakajima and Maffei but we could not locate a proof in the literature.
