Abstract

N. Hitchin recently introduced the notion of folded hyperK\"ahler metrics, in relation with SL(\infty,R) Higgs bundles. We provide a construction of such metrics, and prove the local existence of the Hitchin component for SL(\infty,R).

Comments

in French. This version is more than a revision, since it contains a new result: the construction of the Hitchin component for SL(\infty,R)
