Langlands duality for the Hitchin fibration

Let CC be the underlying smooth projective curve, let rr and dd be the rank and degree, let M=M(d,r,ωC)M=\mathcal M(d,r,\omega_C) be the moduli space of SS-equivalence classes of Higgs bundles of rank rr and degree dd, and let H:MAH:M\to\mathcal A be the Hitchin fibration. A Langlands duality conjecture for the Hitchin fibration. There exists a universal Poincaré sheaf P\overline P on M×AMM\times_{\mathcal A}M such that the Fourier–Mukai transform with kernel P\overline P,

ΦP:Db(M)Db(M),\Phi^{\overline P}:D^b(M)\to D^b(M),

is an auto-equivalence of the bounded derived category Db(M)D^b(M) of coherent sheaves on MM.

This is the autoduality property expected as a classical limit of the geometric Langlands correspondence. Donagi and Pantev proved the statement over the open subset of A\mathcal A parametrizing smooth spectral curves; the assertion over all of A\mathcal A remains conjectural.
