Basic loci in Shimura varieties of Coxeter type

Abstract

This paper is a contribution to the general problem of giving an explicit description of the basic locus in the reduction modulo pp of Shimura varieties. Motivated by \cite{Vollaard-Wedhorn} and \cite{Rapoport-Terstiege-Wilson}, we classify the cases where the basic locus is (in a natural way) the union of classical Deligne-Lusztig sets associated to Coxeter elements. We show that if this is satisfied, then the Newton strata and Ekedahl-Oort strata have many nice properties.
