We establish a relation between intersection numbers of special cycles on a Shimura curve and special values of derivatives of metaplectic Eisenstein series at a place of bad reduction where p-adic uniformization in the sense of Cherednik…

The special fiber of the local model of a PEL Shimura variety with Iwahori-type level structure admits a cellular decomposition. The set of strata is in a natural way a finite subset of the affine Weyl group determined by the Shimura data.…

Let E/F be a CM field split above a finite place v of F, let l be a rational prime number which is prime to v, and let S be the set of places of E dividing lv. If E_S denotes a maximal algebraic extension of E unramified outside S, and if u…

We construct a generalization of the Hasse invariant for certain unitary Shimura varieties of PEL type whose vanishing locus is the complement of the so-called \mu-ordinary locus. We show that the \mu-ordinary locus of those varieties is…

In previous work, we defined certain virtual fundamental classes for special cycles on the moduli stack of Hermitian shtukas, and related them to the higher derivatives of non-singular Fourier coefficients of Siegel-Eisenstein series. In…

In this paper, we prove, following earlier work of Waldspurger ([Wa1], [Wa4]), a sort of local relative trace formula which is related to the local Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture for unitary groups over a local field $F$ of characteristic…

In this paper, we study the behavior of Ekedahl-Oort strata under natural embeddings between the good reductions modulo $p$ of GSpin Shimura varieties and Rapoport-Smithling-Zhang unitary Shimura varieties, a prototypical setting for the…

A spread of a Hermitian unital in PG(2,q^2) is a set of q^2+q+1 pairwise disjoint blocks that partition the points of the unital. In this paper, we discuss the results of an exhaustive computer search for spreads of Hermitian unitals of…

Inspired by recent work of Farb, Kisin and Wolfson, we develop a method for using actions of finite group schemes over a mixed characteristic dvr R to get lower bounds for the essential dimension of a cover of a variety over K = Frac(R). We…

Let $\mathbb{V}$ be a polarized variation of integral Hodge structure on a smooth complex quasi-projective variety $S$. In this paper, we show that the union of the non-factor special subvarieties for $(S, \mathbb{V})$, which are of Shimura…

This paper is about the arithmetic of Kudla-Rapoport divisors on Shimura varieties of type GU(n-1,1). In the first part of the paper we construct a toroidal compactification of N. Kramer's integral model of the Shimura variety. This extends…

The distribution of the unipotent modules (in non-defining prime characteristic) of the finite unitary groups into Harish-Chandra series is investigated. We formulate a series of conjectures relating this distribution with the crystal graph…

We study properties of the restriction of discrete series representations of $G=U(p,q)$ to $G'= U(p-1,q)$ and the corresponding symmetry breaking operators in $\operatorname{Hom}_{G'}(\pi|_{G'}, \pi')$. This leads to the introduction of…

Let $G_0=K\ltimes\mathfrak p$ be the Cartan motion group associated with a noncompact semisimple Riemannian symmetric pair $(G, K)$. Let $\frak a$ be a maximal abelian subspace of $\mathfrak p$ and let $\p=\a+\q$ be the corresponding…

In this paper, we consider infinite Galois extensions of number fields and study the relation between their local degrees and the structure of their Galois groups. It is known that, if $K$ is a number field and $L/K$ is an infinite Galois…

We extend the group theoretic construction of local models of Pappas and Zhu to the case of groups obtained by Weil restriction along a possibly wildly ramified extension. This completes the construction of local models for all reductive…

In this paper we first construct natural filtrations on the full theta lifts for any real reductive dual pairs. We will use these filtrations to calculate the associated cycles and therefore the associated varieties of Harish-Chandra…

We determine the behavior of automorphic Green functions along the boundary components of toroidal compactifications of orthogonal Shimura varieties. We use this analysis to define boundary components of special divisors and prove that the…

With applications in the Kudla program in mind we employ singular theta lifts for the reductive dual pair $U(p,q)\times U(1,1)$ to construct two different kinds of Green forms for codimension $q$-cycles in Shimura varieties associated to…

We investigate a construction of five-dimensional (5D) grand unified theories (GUTs) on an interval, which we call iGUTs. We analyze supersymmetric SO(10) iGUT as an example, where the gauge multiplet is spread over the 5D bulk. The SO(10)…
