Quantum Hikita conjecture for Higgs–Coulomb duality

About 1 year old · traced to

Let XX and X!X^! be symplectically dual varieties arising respectively from Coulomb-branch and Higgs-branch constructions for the gauge theory (G,N)(G,N). Let RR be the coefficient ring and let Meq(X)M_{eq}(X) and MKah(X!)M_{Kah}(X^!) denote the associated graded-trace and Calabi–Yau-specialized quantum DD-modules. Quantum Hikita conjecture. There is an isomorphism of RR-modules

Meq(X)≅MKah(X!).M_{eq}(X) \cong M_{Kah}(X^!).

This is a categorical or module-theoretic expression of symplectic duality, relating Coulomb-branch graded traces to the quantum differential module of the dual Higgs branch. Its general validity is presented as conjectural.
