Relative Fontaine–Mazur conjecture for semisimple lisse sheaves

Let kk be a finitely generated field, let k\overline{k} be a separable closure, let \ell be different from the characteristic of kk, let Λ\Lambda be a finite extension of Q\mathbb{Q}_\ell, and let XX be a smooth geometrically connected kk-scheme. Relative Fontaine–Mazur conjecture. If V\mathbb{V} is a semisimple lisse Λ\Lambda-sheaf on XkX_{k'} for some finite extension k/kk'/k, then VXk\mathbb{V}|_{X_{\overline{k}}} is of geometric origin. The conjecture is basically open, apart from cases such as curves over finite fields where it follows from the Langlands program for function fields.
