Gromov defined a structure of a metric space on
the set of isometry classes of metric spaces,
and applied its convergence properties in areas
as diverse as symplectic geometry and group
theory. This metric is often called
"Gromov-Hausdorff metric". I would explain
what happens with Gromov-Hausdorff convergence
in hyperkahler geometry.
Let $(M,I)$ be a holomorphically symplectic compact
Kahler manifold, and $W$ the space of all hyperkahler
metrics on all birational models of $(M,I)$.
I will show that the set of Gromov-Hausdorff
limits of points in $W$ contains all hyperkahler metrics
on $M$. This is surprising, because the dimension of $W$ is
$b_2-2$, and the dimension of its closure is at least
$3b_2-8$: typically, much bigger.
