Artin's supersingularity conjecture for K3 surfaces

Let kk be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0p>0, and let XX be a K3 surface over kk. The Picard rank of XX is the rank of its Picard group, and XX is supersingular when its formal Brauer group has infinite height, equivalently when the slopes of Frobenius on

Hcris2(X,W(k))H^{2}_{\operatorname{cris}}(X,W(k))

are all equal to 11. Artin's conjecture. The surface XX has Picard rank 2222 if and only if it is supersingular. This is a cohomological characterization of K3 surfaces with maximal Picard rank in positive characteristic; the supplied text does not state whether the conjecture has been resolved.
