Is the mirror of a hyperkaehler manifold always a hyperkaehler manifold?

Is the mirror of a hyperkaehler manifold always a hyperkaehler manifold? What I know so far is as follows: In this paper (https://arxiv.org/pdf/hep-th/9512195.pdf) by Verbitsky, it is claimed that ...

Complex structures on a K3 surface as a hyperkähler manifold

A hyperkähler manifold is a Riemannian manifold of real dimension $4k$ and holonomy group contained in $Sp(k)$. It is known that every hyperkähler manifold has a $2$-sphere $S^{2}$ of complex ...

Isotopy classes of $CP^1$ in 4-manifolds

Let $S_1$, $S_2$ be homologous embedded 2-spheres in a compact smooth 4-manifold. Under which additional conditions are they smoothly isotopic? I am interested in the state of the art picture when $...

Explicit Lagrangian fibrations of a K3 surface

I would like to look at the behaviour of the fibres of a Lagrangian fibration (such that at least some fibres are not special Lagrangian) $X\to\mathbb{CP}^1$ under the mean curvature flow (in relation ...

Is there a hyperkaehler manifold whose mirror is the total space of a tangent/cotangent bundle?

I am looking for an example of a hyperkaehler manifold $Y$ whose mirror is the total space of a tangent bundle $TX$ or a cotangent bundle $T^*X$, where $X$ can be any Riemannian manifold. Is such a ...

Is the mirror of a noncompact hyperkaehler manifold also hyperkaehler?

This is essentially a follow-up question from 'Is the mirror of a hyperkaehler manifold always a hyperkaehler manifold?'. Verbitsky's theorem in (https://arxiv.org/pdf/hep-th/9512195.pdf) says that ...
