Hilbert-scheme model for a wrapped unknot invariant

Let Hilbn(C2)\operatorname{Hilb}^n(\mathbb{C}^2) be the Hilbert scheme of nn points, let I\mathcal{I} be its tautological ideal sheaf, and let X,YX,Y be its two commuting endomorphisms. Assume a monoidal functor

ι:DbCoh(Hilbn(C2))Kb(SBimn).\iota^*:D^b\operatorname{Coh}(\operatorname{Hilb}^n(\mathbb{C}^2))\to K^b(\operatorname{SBim}_n).

Let the glN\mathfrak{gl}_N invariant of a single unknot wrapped around nn vertical strands be formed in the corresponding categorified braid setting. Hilbert-scheme invariant conjecture. This invariant is isomorphic to the glN\mathfrak{gl}_N reduction of

ι(I/(Y,XN)I).\iota^*(\mathcal{I}/(Y,X^N)\mathcal{I}).

The statement would identify a concrete annular link invariant with an object obtained from tautological Hilbert-scheme data. It is one of the conjectural connections discussed with work of Gorsky, Negut, and Rasmussen; no resolution is given in the supplied text.
