New examples of indefinite hyper-Kähler symmetric spaces
Ines Kath and Martin Olbrich
Abstract
Following the approach to pseudo-Riemannian symmetric spaces developed in a previous paper we exhibit examples of indefinite hyper-Kähler symmetric spaces with non-abelian holonomy. Moreover, we classify indecomposable hyper-Kähler symmetric spaces whose metric has signature $(4,4n)$. Such spaces exist if and only if $n\in\{0,1,3\}$.
