Conjecture on the weight variety of the maximal ideal at admissible affine sl3sl_3 levels

Let k=3+22m+1k=-3+\frac{2}{2m+1} with m0m\geqslant 0, let Vk(sl3)V^k(sl_3) be the universal affine vertex operator algebra, and let Ik\mathcal I_k be its maximal ideal. Let V(Ik)\mathcal V(I_k) denote the variety defined from this ideal, and let Λˉ1,Λˉ2\bar{\Lambda}_1,\bar{\Lambda}_2 be the fundamental weights of sl3sl_3. Conjecture.

V(Ik)={tΛˉ12i2m+1Λˉ2, tΛˉ22i2m+1Λˉ1, tΛˉ1(t+2i2m+1+1)Λˉ2:tC, i=0,1,,2m}.\mathcal V(I_k)=\{t\bar{\Lambda}_1-\frac{2i}{2m+1}\bar{\Lambda}_2,\ t\bar{\Lambda}_2-\frac{2i}{2m+1}\bar{\Lambda}_1,\ t\bar{\Lambda}_1-(t+\frac{2i}{2m+1}+1)\bar{\Lambda}_2: t\in\mathbb C,\ i=0,1,\ldots,2m\}.

This is intended to describe the weight variety associated with the maximal ideal and complements the paper’s results on associated varieties of the simple affine vertex operator algebras Lk(sl3)L_k(sl_3). The supplied text gives no resolution status, so whether this description is proved remains open in this record.
