Number field analog of Artin-Tate $\Rightarrow$ BSD?

What is the difference between the alternating product of the Hasse-Weil $L$-functions of the generic fiber of an arithmetic scheme $X\to\text{Spec}(\mathbf{Z})$ and the zeta function of $X$? (each ...

What are "fractional motives"?

Kirti Joshi's musings mention "fractional motives". Do you know what are they good for and what the current state of constructions is for them? Edit: Further cases of "fractional motives" as ...

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 ...

Would full resolution of singularities have cohomological implications beyond the alteration theory?

De Jong's result on alterations allows one to show the potential semistability of certain Galois representations arising from cohomology of varieties (among other things). If we knew the existence of ...

A Generalization of the Tate-Shafarevich/Tate/Fontaine-Mazur Conjectures

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a number field $k$. The Tate-Shafarevich conjecture says that the Tate-Shafarevich group of $A$ is finite. A weakening of this conjecture states that the $\ell$-...

Can the failure of the multiplicativity of archimedean L-factors be corrected?

My question is parallel to J. Borger' question: Can the failure of the multiplicativity of Euler factors at bad primes be corrected? As emphasized by Scholbach in his paper on special values of L-...

Corresponding notion of unramified for motives (or de Rham cohomology)

The etale cohomolgoy of a variety $X$ over a number field $K$ is a Galois representation of $\mathrm{Gal}(\overline K/K)$ with some properties coming from $X$, e.g., it is unramified outside $S$ if $X$...

Cohomology theories for algebraic varieties over number fields

There is a standard line which is repeated by anyone writing/talking about motives and cohomology of algebraic varieties over number fields: namely, there are many such cohomologies and then the ...

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 ...

Finiteness results in the category of schemes up to $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy

In algebraic geometry, we know that there exist geometrical conditions on a scheme $X/k$ for having finitely many rational points when $k$ is a number field. Namely for curves there is the Mordell ...

Why is the weight monodromy hard in mixed characteristics?

Is there literature on a de Rham analogue of the Mumford-Tate group or ell-adic monodromy group?

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over $\mathbb{Q}$. The theory of motives predicts that for each cohomology theory, there should be a distinguished Zariski closed subgroup of $GL(H^k_{\bullet}(X)...
