Motivic monodromy conjecture for local motivic zeta functions

Let kk be a field of characteristic zero, let XX be the relevant kk-variety, let f:XAk1f:X\to\mathbb{A}^1_k be the morphism, let xx be a closed point with residue field kxk_x, and let Zf,x(T)Mk[[T]]Z_{f,x}(T)\in\mathcal{M}_k[[T]] be the local motivic zeta function. Assume that kk is a subfield of C\mathbb{C}. Motivic monodromy conjecture. There exists a finite subset SZ<0×Z>0\mathscr{S}\subset\mathbb{Z}_{<0}\times\mathbb{Z}_{>0} such that

Zf,x(T)Mkx[T,11LaTb](a,b)SMkx[[T]],Z_{f,x}(T)\in\mathcal{M}_{k_x}\left[T,\frac{1}{1-\mathbb{L}^aT^b}\right]_{(a,b)\in\mathscr{S}}\subset\mathcal{M}_{k_x}[[T]],

and such that for every (a,b)S(a,b)\in\mathscr{S}, a/ba/b is a root of the Bernstein–Sato polynomial bf(s)b_f(s). In particular, there exists yX(C)y\in X(\mathbb{C}) with f(y)=0f(y)=0 such that Exp(2πia/b){\mathcal{E}\mathrm{xp}}(2\pi ia/b) is a local monodromy eigenvalue of ff at yy. This conjecture is the motivic analogue of the strong pp-adic monodromy conjecture; the paper notes that the formulation can be extended using \ell-adic nearby cycles, while the general conjecture remains open.
