The weak rationality conjecture for abelian varieties

About 19 years old · traced to

Let AA be an abelian variety over Qal\mathbb{Q}^{\mathrm{al}} with good reduction at ww, and let γ\gamma be a Hodge class on AA. Call γ\gamma ww-Lefschetz if its specialization γ0\gamma_{0} is Lefschetz, and weakly ww-Lefschetz if γ0\gamma_{0} is weakly Lefschetz. The weak rationality conjecture. Every weakly ww-Lefschetz class is ww-Lefschetz. This asserts that the rational and adelic conditions on the specialization of a Hodge class agree; the source presents it as the weak rationality conjecture, with no resolution stated.
