Schiffmann's Lie algebra and PBW conjecture for character varieties

Let

HgBetti=n0Hc(Mg,nBetti,Q){(1g)n2},\mathcal{H}^{\operatorname{\mathtt{Betti}}}_g=\bigoplus_{n\geq 0}\mathrm{H}_c(\mathcal M^{\operatorname{\mathtt{Betti}}}_{g,n},\mathbb{Q})\{(1-g)n^2\}^*,

and let uu be a formal variable. Schiffmann's conjecture. There is a Lie algebra structure on

n1Hc(Mg,nBetti,tw,Q){(1g)n2},\bigoplus_{n\geq 1}\mathrm{H}_c(\mathcal M^{\operatorname{\mathtt{Betti}},\operatorname{\mathtt{tw}}}_{g,n},\mathbb{Q})\{(1-g)n^2\}^*,

and a filtration YY on HgBetti\mathcal{H}^{\operatorname{\mathtt{Betti}}}_g such that

GrY(HgBetti)U(n1Hc(Mg,nBetti,tw,Q){(1g)n2}[u]).\operatorname{Gr}_{\bullet}^Y(\mathcal{H}^{\operatorname{\mathtt{Betti}}}_g)\cong\mathcal{U}\left(\bigoplus_{n\geq 1}\mathrm{H}_c(\mathcal M^{\operatorname{\mathtt{Betti}},\operatorname{\mathtt{tw}}}_{g,n},\mathbb{Q})\{(1-g)n^2\}^*[u]\right).

The conjecture, suggested by Olivier Schiffmann, would imply the main PBW conjecture and is intended to provide a Lie-theoretic explanation of the character-variety generating series; the source gives no resolution status.
