contents Wierzba and Wisniewski proved that in dimension 4, every bimeromorphic map of hyperkahler manifolds is represented as a composition of Mukai flops. Hu and Yau conjectured that this result can be generalized to arbitrary dimension. They defined ``Mukai's elementary transformation'' as the blow-up of a subvariety ruled by complex projective spaces, composed with the contraction of the ruling. Hu and Yau conjectured that any bimeromorphic map of hyperkahler manifolds can be decomposed into a sequence of Mukai's elementary transformations, after possibly removing subvarieties of codimension greater than $2$. We prove this conjecture for compact hyperkahler manifolds of maximal holonomy by decomposing any bimeromorphic map into a composition of wall-crossing flops associated with MBM contractions.
