Katz's local decomposition conjecture for arithmetic families on curves

About 19 years old · traced to

Let YY be a scheme over Z\mathbb Z, and let {(Yp,Gp)}\{(Y_p,{\mathscr G}_p)\} be a family arising from a fixed constructible complex and morphisms as in the setup. Suppose YY is an algebraic curve over Z\mathbb Z, and let F‾p\overline{\mathbb F}_p be an algebraic closure of Fp\mathbb F_p. Katz's local decomposition conjecture. For sufficiently large pp, the inverse image of Gp{\mathscr G}_p under any dominant morphism

Spec⁡F‾p((t))→Yp\operatorname{Spec}\overline{\mathbb F}_p((t))\to Y_p

can be written as a direct sum of objects of the form

[r]∗(Lψp(α(t))⊗K),[r]_\ast\bigl({\mathscr L}_{\psi_p}(\alpha(t))\otimes{\mathscr K}\bigr),

where rr is relatively prime to pp, α(t)∈F‾p((t))\alpha(t)\in\overline{\mathbb F}_p((t)), and K{\mathscr K} is a tame Q‾ℓ\overline{\mathbb Q}_\ell-sheaf on Spec⁡F‾p((t))\operatorname{Spec}\overline{\mathbb F}_p((t)). This is a proposed uniform local description of the sheaves in arithmetic families; the supplied source states it as a conjecture and gives no evidence of a resolution.
