The W-algebra conjecture for the generalized Witten potential

From papers

Let Z(t)Z(\mathbf{t}) be the exponential of the KdVr\mathrm{KdV}_r potential function. Let Wr+W_r^+ denote the relevant algebra of differential operators, containing the Virasoro generators {Ln}n1\{L_n\}_{n\geq -1}. W-algebra conjecture. There exists a collection of differential operators forming a Wr+W_r^+ algebra, with the Virasoro generators {Ln}n1\{L_n\}_{n\geq -1} as a subset, such that this collection annihilates and completely determines Z(t)Z(\mathbf{t}). This is presented as an alternative formulation of the generalized Witten conjecture; the source gives no resolution of the claim.
