Existence and uniqueness of Frobenius-fixed paths in mixed motives
Let be as in paragraph A16, let be the corresponding variety, and suppose that are -points of . Let denote the specialization functor to the category of mixed motives over , and let be the associated unipotent fundamental-group scheme object. The crystalline realization carries paths to de Rham paths, including the Frobenius-fixed de Rham path . Existence and uniqueness conjecture. There exists a unique morphism of affine scheme objects in
whose crystalline realization maps via the Berthelot isomorphism to the Frobenius-fixed de Rham path . This is the expected extension beyond the mixed Tate setting of the corresponding proven statement in the semisimple mixed Tate category; it depends on the conjectural existence and standard properties of the relevant category of mixed motives and specialization functor.
