Abstract: We study Gushel-Mukai (GM) varieties of dimension 4 or 6 in characteristic $p$. Our main result is the Tate conjecture for all such varieties over finitely generated fields of characteristic $pgeq5$. In the case of GM sixfolds, we follow the method used by Madapusi Pera in his proof of the Tate conjecture for K3 surfaces. As input for this, we prove a number of basic results about GM sixfolds, such as the fact that there are no nonzero global vector fields. For GM fourfolds, we prove the Tate conjecture by reducing it to the case of GM sixfolds by making use of the notion of generalised partners plus the fact that generalised partners in characteristic 0 have isomorphic Chow motives in middle degree. Several steps in the proofs rely on results in characteristic 0 that are proven in a companion paper.
