Zhang's moduli-space conjecture for hyperkähler varieties of K3^[n]-type

Let XX be a hyperkähler variety of K3[n]^{[n]}-type with n2n\geq 2. A K3 category is a category of K3 type, and let AX[n]\mathcal A_X^{[n]} denote its Hilbert-scheme-type construction. Zhang's conjecture. There exists a K3 category AX\mathcal A_X such that XX is a moduli space of stable objects on AX\mathcal A_X, together with a canonical Brauer class θXBr(X)\theta_X\in\operatorname{Br}(X) and an exact linear equivalence

Db(X,θX±n)AX[n].D^b(X,\theta_X^{\pm n})\simeq\mathcal A_X^{[n]}.

The conjecture predicts that every hyperkähler variety of K3[n]^{[n]}-type admits a moduli-theoretic description through a K3 category, with its twisted derived category governed by the corresponding categorical Hilbert scheme. The stated corollary provides evidence in the case of Lagrangian fibered hyperkähler manifolds under the given hypotheses; the general assertion remains open.
