On Bruhat-Tits theory over a higher dimensional base
Abstract
Let be a perfect field. Assume that the characteristic of satisfies certain tameness assumptions \eqref{tameness}. Let and set . Let be an almost-simple, simply-connected affine Chevalley group scheme with a maximal torus and a Borel subgroup . Given a -tuple of concave functions on the root system of as in Bruhat-Tits \cite{bruhattits1}, \cite{bruhattits}, we define {\it {\tt n}-bounded subgroups } as a direct generalization of Bruhat-Tits groups for the case . We show that these groups are {\it schematic}, i.e. they are valued points of smooth {\em quasi-affine} (resp. {\em affine}) group schemes with connected fibres and {\it adapted to the divisor with normal crossing } in the sense that the restriction to the generic point of the divisor is given by (resp. sums of concave functions given by points of the apartment). This provides a higher-dimensional analogue of the Bruhat-Tits group schemes with natural specialization properties. In \S\ref{mixedstuff}, under suitable assumptions on \S \ref{charassum}, we extend all these results for a -tuple of concave functions on the root system of replacing by where is a complete discrete valuation ring with a perfect residue field of characteristic . In the last part of the paper, we give applications in char zero to constructing certain natural group schemes on wonderful embeddings of groups and also certain families of {\tt 2-parahoric} group schemes on minimal resolutions of surface singularities that arose in \cite{balaproc}.
