Chai's Tate-linear conjecture

Let f:XAg,Fordf:X\rightarrow\mathscr{A}_{g,\mathbb{F}}^{\mathrm{ord}} be a map from a smooth connected variety, let xX(F)x\in X(\mathbb{F}), and let f/x:X/xAg,F/xf^{/x}:X^{/x}\rightarrow\mathscr{A}_{g,\mathbb{F}}^{/x} be the induced map on formal neighborhoods. Suppose that ff is a locally closed immersion. Chai's Tate-linear conjecture. If X/xX^{/x} is a formal subtorus of Ag,F/x\mathscr{A}_{g,\mathbb{F}}^{/x}, then XX is special. This is an unlikely-intersection statement on the ordinary locus of a mod pp Siegel modular variety; the source gives no resolution status.
