Grothendieck's standard conjecture of Künneth type

Let kk be a base field, let HH^* be a fixed classical Weil cohomology with realization functor RR, and let XX be a variety over kk of dimension dd. Write h(X)\mathfrak{h}(X) for its homological motive. A decomposition is required to realize the cohomological grading, and \vee denotes the dual motive while (d)(-d) denotes a Tate twist.

Standard conjecture of Künneth type. There exists a unique decomposition

h(X)=n=02dhn(X)\mathfrak{h}(X)=\bigoplus_{n=0}^{2d}\mathfrak{h}^n(X)

such that

R(hn(X))=Hn(X),hn(X)=h2dn(X)(d).R(\mathfrak{h}^n(X))=H^n(X),\qquad \mathfrak{h}^n(X)=\mathfrak{h}^{2d-n}(X)^\vee(-d).

This is one of Grothendieck's standard conjectures: it would provide algebraic projectors realizing the Künneth components of the cohomology and a motivic form of Poincaré duality. The source recalls it as a classical conjecture, but gives no resolution here.
