The relative Fontaine–Mazur conjecture for local systems

Let FF be a number field, let XX be a smooth variety over FF, and let L{\mathbb L} be an irreducible Qp\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_p-local system on XX. Assume that there is a finite set SS of places of FF and a smooth model X\mathfrak X of XX over OF,S\mathcal O_{F,S} such that L{\mathbb L} extends to a local system on X\mathfrak X. Also assume that, for every place vv of FF above pp, the restriction of L{\mathbb L} to XFvX_{F_v} is a de Rham local system. The relative Fontaine–Mazur conjecture. Then L{\mathbb L} comes from geometry: there exist a dense open subscheme UXU\subset X and a morphism π:Yo~U\pi:Y\tilde{o} U such that LU{\mathbb L}|_U is a subquotient of RiπQp(j)R^i\pi_*\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_p(j) for some i,ji,j. The conjecture predicts that good reduction away from finitely many places together with de Rham behaviour at places above pp forces a local system to arise from the cohomology of a smooth proper family, up to taking subquotients and Tate twists. It remains open in this general relative form.
