Prime ideals of the Witt enveloping algebra contain primitive ideals

About 5 years old · traced to

Let WW be the Witt algebra and let U⁡(W)\operatorname{U}(W) be its universal enveloping algebra. The Witt prime-to-primitive containment conjecture. Every proper prime ideal of U⁡(W)\operatorname{U}(W) contains a proper primitive ideal. This is an enveloping-algebra analogue of a Poisson result, and the supplied text does not state whether it has been resolved.
