Optimal upper slope bound for the cohomology of rigid spaces

Let XX be a qcqs rigid space of dimension dd over KK and let gGKg\in G_K be an element projecting to Frq\mathrm{Fr}_{q}. For each i>di>d, consider the eigenvalues of gg acting on Hi(XC,Q)H^i(X_C,\mathbb{Q}_\ell) and their qq-slopes.

Slope-bound conjecture. For all i>di>d, the qq-slopes of these eigenvalues are contained in

[id,d].[i-d,d].

The paper states this as a speculation that the bounds for Hi(XC,Q)H^i(X_C,\mathbb{Q}_\ell) are optimal, motivated by examples from rigid analytifications of products of elliptic curves with multiplicative reduction. Since the source presents it as an expectation rather than an established result, its resolution is not specified here.
