An analogue of the Gibbons-Hawking Ansatz for quaternionic K\"ahler spaces
We show that the geometry of $4n$-dimensional quaternionic K\"ahler spaces with a locally free $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$-action admits a Gibbons-Hawking-like description based on the Galicki-Lawson notion of quaternionic K\"ahler moment map. This generalizes to higher dimensions a four-dimensional construction, due to Calderbank and Pedersen, of self-dual Einstein manifolds with two linearly independent commuting Killing vector fields. As an application, we use this new Ansatz to give an explicit equivariant completion of the twistor space construction of the local c-map proposed by Ro\v{c}ek, Vafa and Vandoren.
