The non-admissible collapsing isomorphism conjectures for exceptional W-algebras

Let E6E_6, E7E_7, E8E_8, and F4F_4 denote the corresponding simple exceptional Lie algebras, and let the labels such as 2A22A_2, A2+3A1A_2+3A_1, E6E_6, and A~2\widetilde A_2 denote nilpotent orbits. Non-admissible collapsing isomorphism conjectures. The following isomorphisms are conjectured:

W9(E6,2A2)L3(G2),W6(E6,2A1)L2(B3).\mathscr{W}_{-9}(E_6,2A_2)\cong L_{-3}(G_2),\qquad \mathscr{W}_{-6}(E_6,2A_1)\cong L_{-2}(B_3). W12(E7,A2+3A1)L2(G2).\mathscr{W}_{-12}(E_7,A_2+3A_1)\cong L_{-2}(G_2). W30+32/12(E8,E6)L4+2/3(G2),W24(E8,E6(a3))L2(G2),\mathscr{W}_{-30+32/12}(E_8,E_6)\cong L_{-4+2/3}(G_2),\qquad \mathscr{W}_{-24}(E_8,E_6(a_3))\cong L_{-2}(G_2), W45/2(E8,A4+2A1)C,W70/3(E8,A4+A2+A1)C.\mathscr{W}_{-45/2}(E_8,A_4+2A_1)\cong\mathbb{C},\qquad \mathscr{W}_{-70/3}(E_8,A_4+A_2+A_1)\cong\mathbb{C}. W15/2(F4,A~2)L7/2(G2),W6(F4,A~2)L2(G2).\mathscr{W}_{-15/2}(F_4,\widetilde A_2)\cong L_{-7/2}(G_2),\qquad \mathscr{W}_{-6}(F_4,\widetilde A_2)\cong L_{-2}(G_2).

These conjectures concern collapsing levels that are not admissible; the source motivates them using coincidences of central charges, asymptotic growths, dimensions, and associated-variety data. Their general validity remains open.
