W_n-module conjecture for consecutive quotients of the free associative Lie algebra

Let AnA_n be the free associative algebra on nn generators, regarded as a Lie algebra, and let An,kA_{n,k} be its consecutive lower-central quotients. Let WnW_n be the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields on Cn\mathbb{C}^n, let C\mathcal C be the class of WnW_n-modules introduced in the source, and set

gr+(An)=k>1An,k.gr^+(A_n)=\bigoplus_{k>1}A_{n,k}.

W_n-module conjecture. Every quotient An,kA_{n,k} for k>1k>1 is a WnW_n-module in the class C\mathcal C; the Lie bracket on gr+(An)gr^+(A_n) is WnW_n-equivariant.
