The affine W-algebra action conjecture for non-simply laced affine Lie algebras

Let G\cal G be an affine Lie algebra with connected Dynkin diagram, let G\cal G^{\vee} be its Langlands dual, and let GGG_{\cal G^{\vee}} be the semisimple simply connected group obtained by removing the affine vertex from the Dynkin diagram of G\cal G^{\vee}. Let UGd\cal U_{\cal G^{\vee}}^d be the corresponding Uhlenbeck spaces, equipped with the action of GG×C×CG_{\cal G^{\vee}}\times \mathbb C^*\times\mathbb C^*. Affine W-algebra action conjecture. There exists an action of W(G)\mathscr W(\cal G) on

dIHGG×C×C(UGd)\bigoplus_d \operatorname{IH}^*_{G_{\cal G^{\vee}}\times \mathbb C^*\times \mathbb C^*}(\mathcal U_{\cal G^{\vee}}^d)

with properties similar to those of the main theorem for simply laced groups. This would extend the geometric realization of W-algebras from untwisted and simply laced settings to arbitrary affine Lie algebras, including twisted cases; the source postpones the construction and does not establish the asserted action.
