André's motivic formulation of the Grothendieck period conjecture

About 6 years old · traced to

Let XX be a pure or mixed motive defined over Q‾\overline{\mathbb{Q}}. Write periods(X)\mathrm{periods}(X) for its periods and Gmot(X)\mathcal{G}_{\mathrm{mot}}(X) for its motivic Galois group. Grothendieck period conjecture.

tr.deg⁡Q Q‾(periods(X))=dim⁡Gmot(X).\operatorname{tr.deg}_{\mathbb{Q}}\,\overline{\mathbb{Q}}(\mathrm{periods}(X))=\dim\mathcal{G}_{\mathrm{mot}}(X).

Here Q‾(periods(X))\overline{\mathbb{Q}}(\mathrm{periods}(X)) is the field generated over Q‾\overline{\mathbb{Q}} by the periods of XX. The source notes that the full conjecture also includes connectedness of the period torsor, while this equality is the formulation used in transcendence theory.
