Simple transitive 2-representations of left cell 2-subcategories of projective functors for star algebras

In this paper we study simple transitive $2$-representations of certain $2$-subcategories of the $2$-category of projective functors over a star algebra. We show that in the simplest case, which is associated to the Dynkin type $A_2$, simple transitive $2$-representations are classified by cell $2$-representations. In the general case we conjecture that there exist many simple transitive $2$-representations which are not cell $2$-representations and provide some evidence for our conjecture.
