The Frobenius algebras in question are twisted $K$-theories of $G$, equivariant under the conjugation action, and the controlling device is the equivariant Gysin map along the "product of commutators" from $G^{2g}$ to $G$. The conjecture is compatible with naive virtual localization of holomorphic bundles, from $G$ to its maximal torus; this follows by localization in twisted $K$-theory.To appear in the Segalfest proceedingsAlgebraic GeometryAlgebraic TopologyK-Theory and Homologytext
