Existence and polynomial dependence of ramified irregular vertex operators

Let rr be a positive integer and let MΛ[r]M^{[r]}_{\Lambda} be an irregular Verma module with Λ2r10\Lambda_{2r-1}\neq 0 and Λ2r=0\Lambda_{2r}=0. A ramified irregular vertex operator has an expansion of the form

ΦΛ,ΛΔ(z)Λ=zαexp(i=12r1βizi/2)m=0vmzm/2,\Phi^{\Delta}_{\Lambda',\Lambda}(z)|\Lambda\rangle=z^{\alpha}\exp\left(\sum_{i=1}^{2r-1}\frac{\beta_i}{z^{i/2}}\right)\sum_{m=0}^{\infty}v_mz^{m/2},

with v0=Λv_0=|\Lambda'\rangle. Ramified vertex-operator existence conjecture. The operator exists, with Λ=Λ\Lambda'=\Lambda and

vm=μmcμ(m)LμΛ,v_m=\sum_{|\mu|\leq m}c_{\mu}^{(m)}L_{-\mu}|\Lambda\rangle,

where each cμ(m)c_{\mu}^{(m)} is a polynomial in α\alpha, β1,,β2r1\beta_1,\ldots,\beta_{2r-1}, Λr,,Λ2r1\Lambda_r,\ldots,\Lambda_{2r-1}, Λ2r11\Lambda_{2r-1}^{-1}, and c(k)c_{\emptyset}^{(k)} for km1k\leq m-1. The source gives this as a conjecture and does not report a resolution.
