Differential geometry, basic complex analysis.

Abstract

Hyperkahler manifolds form an extremely symmetric class of manifolds of great importance throughout mathematics and physics. I'll introduce their basic properties before indicating many examples of known constructions. Finally, I hope to detail Gaiotto-Moore-Neitzke's conjectural description of Hitchin moduli spaces.
