Hassett–Tschinkel's effective-cone conjecture for irreducible holomorphic symplectic varieties

Let XX be an irreducible holomorphic symplectic variety with polarization HH, and let N1(X,Z)N_1(X,\mathbb{Z}) be its group of curve classes modulo homological equivalence. Write NE1(X)\operatorname{NE}_1(X) for the cone of effective curves, and let (,)(\cdot,\cdot) be the Beauville–Bogomolov form. Hassett–Tschinkel's conjecture. There is a positive rational constant cXc_X, depending only on the deformation class of XX, such that

NE1(X)=CN1(X,Z)HC>0 and (C,C)cX.\operatorname{NE}_1(X)=\langle C\in N_1(X,\mathbb{Z})\mid H\cdot C>0\ \mathrm{and}\ (C,C)\geq -c_X\rangle.

Moreover, if XX contains a smoothly embedded Lagrangian nn-plane PnX\mathbb{P}^n\subset X and NE1(X)\ell\in\operatorname{NE}_1(X) is the class of a line in Pn\mathbb{P}^n, then

(,)=cX.(\ell,\ell)=-c_X.

The paper later refers to this as disproven, so the conjecture is not valid in its stated generality.
