Compatibility of system of $\ell$-adic representations associated to Voevodsky motives

Let $M$ be an object of Voevodsky's category $DM_{gm}(K,\mathbb{Q})$ for a number field $K$. For each prime number $\ell$, there is an $\ell$-adic realization $M_{\ell}$ in the bounded derived ...

Uncountably many non-isomorphic Tate modules

Do there exist uncountably many abelian surfaces with good reduction over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with pairwise non-isomorphic rational $p$-adic Tate modules? If we took $l$-adic Tate modules there would be ...

What unramified Galois representations come from geometry?

I think we don't know what crystalline representations come from geometry. What about the unramified ones? Specifically let $\phi:\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}_p}/\mathbb{Q}_p)\to GL_n(\mathbb{Q}...

Algorithmically recover the $l'$-adic Galois representation from the $l$-adic one (assuming the Tate conjecture)

Let $E$ be a number field. For any finite Galois extension $E\subset F$ there is a continuous homomorphism $\pi_F:\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{E}/E)\to \mathrm{Gal}(F/E)$. Let $X$ be a smooth projective ...

Functoriality for $\ell$-adic cohomology - a question

This should a be basic enough question, but I’m a little confused. In proving that $H^*(X,\mathbf{Q}_{\ell})$ is functorial (in the sense of Weil cohomology theories: see axiom D2 here) as $X$ ranges ...

Is there a yoga of effectivity for motives and their realizations?

Inside the 'usual' categories of motives (Chow, Voevodsky ones) there are the categories of effective motives. Similarly, there are effective Hodge structures; they seem to be closely related with ...

Which degree does a motivic Galois representation show up in?

Consider a representation $\rho: \operatorname{Gal} (\overline{\mathbb Q} | \mathbb Q ) \to GL_n ( \overline{\mathbb Q}_\ell)$ that is a subrepresentation of $H^i(X, \overline{\mathbb Q}_\ell (j))$ ...

What are the possible motivic Galois groups over $\mathbb Q$?

Let $E$ be a motive over $\mathbb Q$. (I should precise, that by a motive I mean here a pure motive over $\mathbb Q$, with coefficients in $\mathbb Q$, that I see here as a conjectural object which ...

Are there known cases of the Mumford–Tate conjecture that do not use Abelian varieties?

(For a formulation of the Mumford–Tate conjecture, see below.) The question As far as I know, all non-trivial known cases of the Mumford–Tate conjecture more or less depend on the Mumford–Tate ...

Any counterexamples known for the Generalized Tate conjecture?

One can state the generalized Tate conjecture over arbitrary finitely generated fields; to this end one should just define Galois representation to be effective if the eignevalues of the actions of ...

Should the etale cohomology of a smooth projective variety (over rationals) be semi-simple; why?

$\DeclareMathOperator{\char}{char}\DeclareMathOperator{\gal}{Gal}$ Let $P$ be a smooth projective variety over a field $K$ (one may certainly assume that $K$ is perfect; the case $K=\mathbb{Q}$ ...
