Minimal Newton strata in Iwahori double cosets

Algebraic Geometry 2019-11-27 v2

Abstract

The set of Newton strata in a given Iwahori double coset in the loop group of a reductive group G is indexed by a finite subset of the set B(G) of Frobenius-conjugacy classes. For unramified GG we show that it has a unique minimal element and determine this element. Under a regularity assumption we also compute the dimension of the corresponding Newton stratum. We derive corresponding results for affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties.
