Title: The Kottwitz conjecture for unitary PEL-type Rapoport–Zink spaces
Abstract In this paper we study the cohomology of PEL-type Rapoport–Zink spaces associated to unramified unitary similitude groups over ℚ p {\operatorname{\mathbb{Q}}_{p}} in an odd number of variables. We extend the results of Kaletha–Minguez–Shin–White and Mok to construct a local Langlands correspondence for these groups and prove an averaging formula relating the cohomology of Rapoport–Zink spaces to this correspondence. We use this formula to prove the Kottwitz conjecture for the groups we consider.  more » « less

    Abstract We study the l -adic cohomology of unramified Rapoport–Zink spaces of EL-type. These spaces were used in Harris and Taylor's proof of the local Langlands correspondence for $$\mathrm {GL_n}$$ and to show local–global compatibilities of the Langlands correspondence. In this paper we consider certain morphisms $$\mathrm {Mant}_{b, \mu }$$ of Grothendieck groups of representations constructed from the cohomology of these spaces, as studied by Harris and Taylor, Mantovan, Fargues, Shin and others. Due to earlier work of Fargues and Shin we have a description of $$\mathrm {Mant}_{b, \mu }(\rho )$$ for $$\rho $$ a supercuspidal representation. In this paper, we give a conjectural formula for $$\mathrm {Mant}_{b, \mu }(\rho )$$ for $$\rho $$ an admissible representation and prove it when $$\rho $$ is essentially square-integrable. Our proof works for general $$\rho $$ conditionally on a conjecture appearing in Shin's work. We show that our description agrees with a conjecture of Harris in the case of parabolic inductions of supercuspidal representations of a Levi subgroup.

  2. Abstract We develop a Tannakian framework for group-theoretic analogs of displays, originally introduced by Bültel and Pappas, and further studied by Lau. We use this framework to define Rapoport–Zink functors associated to triples $$(G,\{\mu \},[b])$$, where $$G$$ is a flat affine group scheme over $${\mathbb{Z}}_p$$ and $$\mu$$ is a cocharacter of $$G$$ defined over a finite unramified extension of $${\mathbb{Z}}_p$$. We prove these functors give a quotient stack presented by Witt vector loop groups, thereby showing our definition generalizes the group-theoretic definition of Rapoport–Zink spaces given by Bültel and Pappas. As an application, we prove a special case of a conjecture of Bültel and Pappas by showing their definition coincides with that of Rapoport and Zink in the case of unramified EL-type local Shimura data.

  3. We prove a character formula for some closed fine Deligne–Lusztig varieties. We apply it to compute fixed points for fine Deligne–Lusztig varieties arising from the basic loci of Shimura varieties of Coxeter type. As an application, we prove an arithmetic intersection formula for certain diagonal cycles on unitary and GSpin Rapoport–Zink spaces arising from the arithmetic Gan–Gross–Prasad conjectures. In particular, we prove the arithmetic fundamental lemma in the minuscule case, without assumptions on the residual characteristic.

  4. Abstract In this article, we improve our main results from [LL21] in two directions: First, we allow ramified places in the CM extension $E/F$ at which we consider representations that are spherical with respect to a certain special maximal compact subgroup, by formulating and proving an analogue of the Kudla–Rapoport conjecture for exotic smooth Rapoport–Zink spaces. Second, we lift the restriction on the components at split places of the automorphic representation, by proving a more general vanishing result on certain cohomology of integral models of unitary Shimura varieties with Drinfeld level structures.
