Singularities of local models

From MaRDI portal





The authors construct local models of Shimura varieties and investigate their singularities, with special emphasis on wildly ramified cases. More precisely, with the exception of odd unitary groups in residue characteristic 2 they construct local models, show reducedness of their special fiber, Cohen-Macaulayness and in equicharacteristic also (pseudo-)rationality. In mixed characteristic they conjecture their pseudo-rationality. This is based on the construction of parahoric group schemes over two dimensional bases for wildly ramified groups and an analysis of singularities of the attached Schubert varieties in positive characteristic using perfect geometry. This excellent paper presents its methods clearly and concisely in the introduction, which also cites the relevant literature in a fair and comprehensive manner. It will be of great interest to all researchers working in these areas.
