Abstract
We study the geometry of equicharacteristic partial affine flag varieties associated to tamely ramified groups in characteristics dividing the order of the fundamental group . We obtain that most Schubert varieties are not normal and provide an explicit criterion for when this happens. Apart from this, we show, on the one hand, that loop groups of semisimple groups satisfying are not reduced, and on the other hand, that their integral realizations are ind-flat. Our methods allow us to classify all tamely ramified Pappas-Zhu local models of Hodge type which are normal.
