Compatibility of canonical $\ell$-adic local systems on Shimura varieties
Abstract
For a Shimura variety in the superrigid regime and neat level subgroup , we show that the canonical family of -adic representations associated to a number field point , form a compatible system of -representations: there is an integer such that for all , is unramified away from , and for all and , the semisimple parts of the conjugacy classes of and are (-rational and) equal. We deduce this from a stronger compatibility result for the canonical -valued local systems on connected Shimura varieties inside . Our theorems apply in particular to Shimura varieties of non-abelian type and represent the first such independence-of- results in non-abelian type.

Comments
At referee's advice, the preliminary section on tame specialization has been deleted, and the abstract results for superrigid local systems have been presented in less generality. A few small corrections (especially the end of Prop 2.3) and other minor expository changes have been made
