Free-field realization conjecture for W-algebras
Free-field realization conjecture for W-algebras
Let be the non-fractional lattice, and let and be the short and long screening operators. Define
Free-field realization conjecture. In the Lie-algebra case, should be isomorphic to the corresponding W-algebra, namely the Hamiltonian or quantum Drinfeld–Sokolov reduction of the affine Lie algebra at level . This realization is stated to hold for generic and to be widely believed otherwise, but the non-generic case is described as a difficult open conjecture.
