In this article we compute the mass associated to any unimodular lattice in a Hermitian space over an arbitrary CM field under a condition at 2. We study the geometry and arithmetic of the basic locus of the GU(r,s)-Shimura variety…
We consider Shimura varieties associated to a unitary group of signature $(2,n-2)$. We give regular $p$-adic integral models for these varieties over odd primes $p$ which ramify in the imaginary quadratic field with level subgroup at $p$…
We study the local behavior of special cycles on Shimura varieties for $\mathbf{U}(2, 1) \times \mathbf{U}(1, 1)$ in the setting of the Gan-Gross-Prasad conjectures at primes $\tau$ of the totally real field of definition of the unitary…
In this work, we study the supersingular locus of the Shimura variety associated to the unitary group $\mathrm{GU}(2,4)$ over a ramified prime. We show that the associated Rapoport-Zink space is flat, and we give an explicit description of…
In this note we study the special fiber of the Rapoport-Zink space attached to a quaternionic unitary group. The special fiber is described using the so called Bruhat-Tits stratification and is intimately related to the Bruhat-Tits building…
Let $F$ be a totally real field in which $p$ is unramified. We study the Goren-Oort stratification of the special fibers of quaternionic Shimura varieties over a place above $p$. We show that each stratum is a $(\mathbb{P}^1)^N$-bundle over…
We study Shimura (special) subvarieties in the moduli space $A_{p,D}$ of complex abelian varieties of dimension $p$ and polarization type $D$. These subvarieties arise from families of covers compatible with a fixed group action on the base…
We establish a close connection between intersection multiplicities of special cycles on arithmetic models of the Shimura variety for GU(1,2) and Fourier coefficients of derivatives of certain incoherent Eisenstein series, confirming a…
We give several new moduli interpretations of the fibers of certain Shimura varieties over several prime numbers. As a consequence (of our theorem 9.1) one obtains that for every prescribed odd prime characteristic $p$ every bounded…
We define a class of local Shimura varieties that contains some local Shimura varieties for exceptional groups, and for this class, we construct a functor from $\left(G, \mu\right)$-displays to $p$-divisible groups. As an application, we…
In this paper, we study the basic locus in the fiber at $p$ of a certain unitary Shimura variety with a certain parahoric level structure. The basic locus $\widehat{\mathcal{M}^{ss}}$ is uniformized by a formal scheme $\mathcal{N}$ which is…
We consider cycles on a 3-dimensional Shimura varieties attached to a unitary group, defined over extensions of a CM field $E$, which appear in the context of the conjectures of Gan, Gross, and Prasad \cite{gan-gross-prasad}. We establish a…
The paper studies the supersingular locus of the characteristic p moduli space of principally polarized abelian 8-folds that are equipped with an action of a maximal order in a quaternion algebra, that is non-split at the infinite place,…
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"…
The Kodaira dimension of Shimura varieties has been studied by many people. Kondo and Gritsenko-Hulek-Sankaran studied the singularities of orthogonal Shimura varieties related to the moduli spaces of polarized K3 surfaces. They proved that…
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…
In this paper we study the Oort conjecture on Shimura subvarieties contained generically in the Torelli locus in the Siegel modular variety $\mathcal{A}_g$. Using the poly-stability of Higgs bundles on curves and the slope inequality of…
We prove the congruence relation for the mod-p reduction of Shimura varieties associated to a unitary similitude group GU(n-1,1), when p is inert and n odd. When n is even, this result was obtained by T. Wedhorn and O. B\"ultel using the…
In this paper we construct Shimura subvarieties of dimension bigger than one of the moduli space of polarised abelian varieties of a given dimension, which are generically contained in the Pym loci of (ramified) double covers. The idea is…
Ren and the second author established that the weakly optimal subvarieties (e.g. maximal weakly special subvarieties) of a subvariety $V$ of a Shimura variety arise in finitely many families. In this article, we refine this theorem by (1)…
