Local constancy conjecture for crystalline lifts

Let

rˉ:Gal(Qp/Qp)GL2(Fp)\bar{r}:{\operatorname{Gal}}(\overline{{\mathbb{Q}}}_p/{\mathbb{Q}}_p)\to\operatorname{GL}_2(\overline{{\mathbb{F}}}_p)

be a reducible representation. Let n0n\geq 0 be an integer, and let k,kn+1k,k'\geq n+1 satisfy kk(mod(p1)pM(n))k\equiv k'\pmod{(p-1)p^{M(n)}}.

Local constancy conjecture. There is a crystalline lift of rˉ\bar r with Hodge–Tate weights 0,k10,k-1 and slope nn if and only if there is a crystalline lift of rˉ\bar r with Hodge–Tate weights 0,k10,k'-1 and slope nn.

This is a purely local analogue of the Gouvêa–Mazur slope-local-constancy conjecture. The source proposes it as a possible route to controlling slopes up to multiplicity, but gives no resolution.
