Résumé

Toric hyperkähler manifolds are the hyperkähler analogue of symplectic toric manifolds. The theory of Bielawski and Dancer tells us that, while a symplectic toric manifold is determined by a Delzant polytope, a toric hyperkähler manifold is determined by a smooth hyperplane arrangement. The purpose of this paper is to show that a toric hyperkähler manifold up to weak hyperhamiltonian $T$-isometry is determined not only by a smooth hyperplane arrangement up to weak linear equivalence but also by its equivariant cohomology $H_T^*(M;\mathbb Z)$ with a point $\hat a$ in $H^2(M;\mathbb R)\setminus\{0\}$ up to weak $H^*(BT;\mathbb Z)$-algebra isomorphism preserving $\hat a$.
