Compatibility of canonical $\ell$-adic local systems on Shimura varieties, II

Number Theory 2025-04-29 v2 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

Let (G,X)(G, X) be a Shimura datum. In previous work with Christian Klevdal, we showed that the canonical G(Q)G(\mathbb{Q}_{\ell})-valued local systems on Shimura varieties for GG form compatible systems after projection to the adjoint group of GG. In this note, we strengthen this result to prove compatibility for the G(Q)G(\mathbb{Q}_{\ell})-local systems themselves. We also include the crystalline compatibility, extending the adjoint case established in our joint work Jake Huryn, Kiran Kedlaya, and Christian Klevdal.

Comments

Comments welcome. This update: (1) fixes some cross-referencing with our joint work with Huryn, Kedlaya, and Klevdal; (2) gives more details on companions with reductive monodromy group; (3) changes the title to avoid confusion with our previous work with Klevdal
