Whittaker-category equivalence for finite W-algebras

Let abab be a W0W_0-orbit in abab^*, and let M(Λ,χ)M(\Lambda,\chi) and L(Λ,χ)L(\Lambda,\chi) be the standard and irreducible objects in the category O(χ)\mathcal O(\chi), while M(Λ,e)M(\Lambda,e) and L(Λ,e)L(\Lambda,e) are the corresponding objects in O(e)\mathcal O(e). Let QlQ_{\mathfrak l} be the (U(g),U(g,e))(U(\mathfrak g),U(\mathfrak g,e))-bimodule appearing in the annihilator comparison. Whittaker-category equivalence conjecture. There should be an equivalence of categories

W:O(χ)O(e)\mathbb W:\mathcal O(\chi)\longrightarrow\mathcal O(e)

such that

WM(Λ,χ)M(Λ,e),WL(Λ,χ)L(Λ,e)\mathbb W M(\Lambda,\chi)\cong M(\Lambda,e),\qquad \mathbb W L(\Lambda,\chi)\cong L(\Lambda,e)

for every abLab\in\mathcal L. Moreover, abab should respect annihilators in the sense that

AnnU(g)(M)=AnnU(g)(QlU(g,e)WM)\operatorname{Ann}_{U(\mathfrak g)}(M)=\operatorname{Ann}_{U(\mathfrak g)}\left(Q_{\mathfrak l}\otimes_{U(\mathfrak g,e)}\mathbb W M\right)

for every MO(χ)M\in\mathcal O(\chi). This would extend the relationship between the Whittaker category and the category of modules for the finite W-algebra, while also preserving annihilator ideals; the supplied text presents it as a stronger conjecture and gives no resolution.
