Equivalence of loop-group representation categories and conformal-net categories
Let be a simple simply connected Lie group and let be a level. The category is defined by approaches \textit{a.} or \textit{b.}, while approach \textit{c.} constructs another category; a balanced tensor category is a tensor category equipped with a braiding and a twist.
Equivalence conjecture. For every simple simply connected Lie group and every level , the categories defined via \textit{a.} or \textit{b.}, and via \textit{c.}, are equivalent as balanced tensor categories.
Approaches \textit{a.} and \textit{b.} are known to produce equivalent modular tensor categories and to be additively equivalent to . Approach \textit{c.} is less developed: the equivalence is known for , while for and for other Lie groups the corresponding braided or fusion-category equivalence was not known in the source.
