A dimension formula for Ekedahl-Oort strata

Algebraic Geometry 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We study the Ekedahl-Oort stratification on moduli spaces of PEL type. The strata are indexed by cosets in a Weyl group. The main result of this paper is that the dimension of a stratum equals the length of the corresponding Weyl group element. We also discuss some explicit examples.
