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 construct (cohomological) correspondences between mod $p$ fibers of different Shimura varieties and describe the fibers of these correspondences by studying irreducible components of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties. In particular, in…

We prove the Hecke orbit conjecture of Chai--Oort for Shimura varieties of Hodge type at odd primes of good reduction. We use a novel result for the local monodromy groups of $F$-isocrystals "coming from geometry", which refines Crew's…

We consider Shimura varieties associated to a unitary group of signature $(n-s,s)$ where $n$ is even. For these varieties, we construct smooth $p$-adic integral models for $s=1$ and regular $p$-adic integral models for $s=2$ and $s=3$ over…

For several Hodge-type Shimura varieties of good reduction in characteristic $p$, we show that the cone of weights of automorphic forms is encoded by the stack of $G$-zips of Pink-Wedhorn-Ziegler. This establishes several instances of a…

Let $G$ be a real reductive Lie group, and $H^{\mathbb{C}}$ the complexification of its maximal compact subgroup $H\subset G$. We consider classes of semistable $G$-Higgs bundles over a Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g\geq2$ whose underlying…

Let $C$ be a nonsingular projective curve over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ and $I\subset C$ be a finite set. If $\mathcal{U}_{C,\,\omega}$ denotes the moduli space of semistable parabolic bundles of rank $r$ and…

We construct log-motivic cohomology groups for semistable varieties and study the $p$-adic deformation theory of log-motivic cohomology classes. Our main result is the deformational part of a $p$-adic variational Hodge conjecture for…

By Koebe's retrosection theorem, every closed Riemann surface of genus $g \geq 2$ is uniformized by a Schottky group. Marden observed that there are Schottky groups that are not classical ones, that is, they cannot be defined by a suitable…

In 2001, de Oliveira, Katzarkov, and Ramachandran conjectured that the property of smooth projective varieties having big fundamental groups is stable under small deformations. This conjecture was proven by Beno\^it Claudon in 2010 for…

We bound the slope of sweeping curves in the fourgonal locus of the moduli space of genus g algebraic curves. Our results follow from some Bogomolov-type inequalities for weakly positive rank two vector bundles on ruled surfaces.

We generalize the notion of Ekedahl-Oort strata to elements in the loop group of any connected reductive group, and call the resulting discrete invariant the truncation of level 1 of the element. We give conditions for the Newton points…

Our concern in this paper is to describe the p-rank statification on the Siegel moduli space with Iwahori level structure over fields of positive characteristic. We calculate the dimension of the strata and describe the closure of a given…

We study the rigid cohomology of the ordinary locus in some compact PEL Shimura varieties of type C with values in automorphic local systems and use it to prove a small slope criterion for classicality of overconvergent Hecke eigenforms.…

For every prime $p$ and integer $n\ge 3$ we explicitly construct an abelian variety $A/\F_{p^n}$ of dimension $n$ such that for a suitable prime $l$ the group of quasi-isogenies of $A/\F_{p^n}$ of $l$-power degree is canonically a dense…

A $p$-divisible group over a field $K$ admits a slope decomposition; associated to each slope $\lambda$ is an integer $m$ and a representation $\gal(K) \ra \gl_m(D_\lambda)$, where $D_\lambda$ is the $\rat_p$-division algebra with Brauer…

Let A be an abelian variety over a number field F with End(A/F) commutative. Let S be a subgroup of A(F) and let x be a point of A(F). Suppose that for almost all places v of F the reduction of x modulo v lies in the reduction of S modulo…

For a point $x_0$ in a Shimura variety attached to a Shimura datum of Hodge type $(G,X)$, we have an associated abelian scheme $A_0$. Fixing a non-empty finite set $\mathcal{S}$ of primes, we consider the simultaneous supersingular…

We describe a systematic way of constructing effective divisors on the moduli space of stable curves of genus g having exceptionally small slope. We prove that any divisor on \bar{M}_g consisting of curves failing a certain Green-Lazarsfeld…

A p-divisible group over a base scheme in characteristic p in general does not admit a slope filtration. Let X be a p-divisible group with constant Newton polygon over a normal noetherian scheme S; we prove that there exists an isogeny from…
