O'Grady's covering-family conjecture for Lagrangian subvarieties
Let be the hyperkähler variety under consideration, let be the distinguished Lagrangian subvariety, and let a family over a base be a morphism . Here a Lagrangian subvariety is a subvariety on which the holomorphic symplectic form restricts to zero and whose dimension is half that of .
O'Grady's conjecture. There is a positive integer and a family of Lagrangian subvarieties over a base such that covers , i.e. is surjective; for all , is an effective cycle with each a Lagrangian subvariety; and there is an such that .
This conjecture predicts a covering family whose members include a positive multiple of the distinguished Lagrangian subvariety, as part of the proposed construction of new hyperkähler varieties from Lagrangian subvarieties. Its resolution status is not specified in the supplied text.
