We present a general and comprehensive overview of recent developments in the theory of integral models of Shimura varieties of Hodge type. The paper covers the following topics: construction of integral models, their possible moduli…

We prove a fixed point theorem for the action of certain local monodromy groups on \'etale covers and use it to deduce lower bounds in essential dimension. In particular, we give more geometric proofs of many (but not all) of the results of…

Consider a family f:A --> U of g-dimensional abelian varieties over a quasiprojective manifold U. Suppose that the induced map from U to the moduli scheme of polarized abelian varieties is generically finite and that there is a projective…

In this article, we discuss the semicontinuity problem of certain properties on fibers for a morphism of schemes. One aspect of this problem is local. Namely, we consider properties of schemes at the level of local rings, in which the main…

We study local models that describe the singularities of Shimura varieties of non-PEL type for orthogonal groups at primes where the level subgroup is given by the stabilizer of a single lattice. In particular, we use the Pappas-Zhu…

Let $F$ be a real quadratic field in which a fixed prime $p$ is inert, and $E_0$ be an imaginary quadratic field in which $p$ splits; put $E=E_0 F$. Let ${{\rm Sh}}_{1,n-1}$ be the special fiber over $\mathbb{F}_{p^2}$ of the Shimura…

We study $p$-adic integral models of certain PEL Shimura varieties with level subgroup at $p$ related to the $\Gamma_1(p)$-level subgroup in the case of modular curves. We will consider two cases: the case of Shimura varieties associated…

We show that the moduli spaces of sheaves on a projective K3 surface are irreducible symplectic varieties, and that the same holds for the fibers of the Albanese map of moduli spaces of sheaves on an Abelian surface.

We construct flat integral moduli schemes of PEL type D and the corresponding flat orthogonal Rapoport--Zink spaces with parahoric level structure over a $p$-adic integer ring. The construction relies on proving a conjecture of…

We investigate the geometry of the special fiber of the integral model of a Shimura variety with parahoric level at a given prime place. To be more precise, we deal with the EKOR stratification which interpolates between the Ekedahl-Oort…

Let $G/P$ be a complex cominuscule flag manifold of type $E_6,E_7$. We prove that each characteristic cycle of the intersection homology (IH) complex of a Schubert variety in $G/P$ is irreducible. The proof utilizes an earlier algorithm by…

This paper gives a complete parametrization of the commensurability classes of totally geodesic subspaces of irreducible arithmetic quotients of $X_{a, b} = (\mathbf{H}^2)^a \times (\mathbf{H}^3)^b$. A special case describes all Shimura…

In this article we investigate the regularity properties of linear degenerations of flag varieties. We classify the linear degenerations of (partial) flag varieties that are smooth. Furthermore, we study the singular locus of irreducible…

We give a construction which produces irreducible complex rigid local systems on $\Bbb{P}_{\Bbb{C}}^1-\{p_1,\dots,p_s\}$ via quantum Schubert calculus and strange duality. These local systems are unitary and arise from a study of vertices…

Our goal is to analyse singularities of integral models of Shimura varieties. One approach is to construct local models, which model the singularities of the corresponding integral model using linear algebra dada and find resolutions with…

We consider Shimura varieties associated to a unitary group of signature $(n-s,s)$ where $n$ is even. For these varieties, by using the spin splitting models from Zachos-Zhao, we construct flat, Cohen-Macaulay, and normal $p$-adic integral…

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 study the geometry of reduction modulo $p$ of the Kisin-Pappas integral models for certain Shimura varieties of abelian type with parahoric level structure. We give some direct and geometric constructions for the EKOR…

We generalize the local-global compatibility result in arXiv:1506.04022 to higher dimensional cases, by examining the relation between Scholze's functor and cohomology of Kottwitz-Harris-Taylor type Shimura varieties. Along the way we prove…

Let $X$ be a Stein manifold of complex dimension at least two, $F : X \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^n$ a local biholomorphism, and $q \in F(X)$. In this paper we formulate sufficient conditions involving only objects naturally associated to $q$,…
