Elkies' supersingularity theorem in higher dimensionThe following is a theorem of Elkies: Let $X$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$. Then there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that the action of Frobenius on $H^1(\mathcal{O}, X)$ is zero. Allen Knutson and I would like a similar theorem for higher dimensional Calabi-Yau varieties. Unfortunately, we've been told that this is probably open. (References for the fact that it is open are appreciated.) But we don't need the full strength of Elkies' result. It would be enough for us to know the following: Let $X$ be an $n$-dimensional, smooth, complete Calabi-Yau variety over $\mathbb{Q}$, for $n>0$. Write $X/p$ for the fiber of $X$ over $p$. Let $T(p)$ be the action of Frobenius on $H^n(\mathcal{O}, X/p)$. Are there infinitely many $p$ for which $T(p) \neq 1$? Also, in the same generality, are there infinitely many primes for which $T(p) \neq 0$?
