Let $Z$ be an algebraic subvariety of a Shimura variety. We extend results of the first author to prove an effective upper bound for the degree of a non-facteur maximal special subvariety of $Z$.
We prove the Categorified Wrapping Number Conjecture for large classes of annular links, including alternating annular links and tangle closures exhibiting plumbed link phenomena. We do so by characterizing when a resolution is sufficient…
We propose a conjectural theory of $p$-integral models of Shimura varieties with level structure at $p$ given by a class of normal subgroups of parahoric subgroups with abelian quotient group. The role of the theory of local models is…
We define variants of PEL type of the Shimura varieties that appear in the context of the Arithmetic Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture. We formulate for them a version of the AGGP conjecture. We also construct (global and semi-global) integral…
We survey recent joint work with M. Rapoport and W. Zhang related to the arithmetic Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture for Shimura varieties attached to unitary groups.
This paper is a continuation of our paper math.AG/0006222. We study the reduction of certain PEL Shimura varieties with parahoric level structure at primes p at which the group that defines the Shimura variety ramifies. We describe "good"…
For any Shimura variety of Hodge type with hyperspecial level at a prime $p$ and automorphic lisse sheaf on it, we prove a formula, conjectured by Kottwitz \cite{Kottwitz90}, for the Lefschetz numbers of Frobenius-twisted Hecke…
We study Shimura subvarieties of $\mathsf{A}_g$ obtained from families of Galois coverings $f: C \rightarrow C'$ where $C'$ is a smooth complex projective curve of genus $g' \geq 1$ and $g= g(C)$. We give the complete list of all such…
We survey some recent work on the geometric Satake of p-adic groups and its applications to some arithmetic problems of Shimura varieties. We reformulate a few constructions appeared in the previous works more conceptually.
We prove in this paper a classicality result for overconvergent modular forms on PEL Shimura varieties of type (A) or (C), without any ramification hypothesis. We use an analytic continuation method, which generalizes previous results in…
We suggest to look at formal sentences describing complex algebraic varieties together with their universal covers as topological invariants. We prove that for abelian varieties and Shimura varieties this is indeed a complete invariant,…
We prove a general likely intersections theorem, a counterpart to the Zilber-Pink conjectures, under the assumption that the Ax-Schanuel property and some mild additional conditions are known to hold for a given category of complex quotient…
We continue our study of the reduction of PEL Shimura varieties with parahoric level structure at primes p at which the group that defines the Shimura variety ramifies. We describe "good" $p$-adic integral models of these Shimura varieties…
A categoricity theorem is established for patterns of resemblance of order 2 showing that the order in which patterns arise in a wide range of hierarchies is the same.
We study the image of $\ell$-adic representations attached to subvarieties of Shimura varieties $Sh_K(G,X)$ that are not contained in a smaller Shimura subvariety and have no isotrivial components. We show that, for $\ell$ large enough…
In this article, we study local models associated to certain Shimura varieties. In particular, we present a resoultion of their singularities. As a consequence, we are able to determine the alternating semisimple trace of the geometric…
Motivated by phylogenetics, our aim is to obtain a system of equations that define a phylogenetic variety on an open set containing the biologically meaningful points. In this paper we consider phylogenetic varieties defined via group-based…
In this paper we study the reduction of PEL-Shimura varieties associated to unitary groups of signature (n-1,1) in the inert and unramified case. We describe the Newton polygon and the Ekedahl-Oort stratification. We further study the…
The purpose of this article is to explain the Pila-Zannier strategy for proving the Andr\'e-Oort conjecture. First, however, we will provide a brief introduction to the theory of Shimura varieties.
We prove the Andre-Oort conjecture on special points of Shimura varieties for arbitrary products of modular curves, assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. More explicitly, this means the following. Let n be a positive integer, and let…
