Algebraic cycles on hyperkahler varieties

There are many questions in algebraic geometry which require constructing algebraic cycles or vector bundles with special properties.  In the case of hyperkahler manifolds, Markman introduced a general approach for such constructions, using twistor families and Verbitsky's theory of hyperholomorphic bundles.  I will explain this technique and some conjectures for which it can be used.
