Dimension–codimension formula for affine Deligne–Lusztig varieties

Let GG be the group under consideration, let xW~x\in\widetilde{W} be an element of its affine Weyl group, and let bGb\in G. Let II be an Iwahori subgroup, let Xx(b)X_x(b) be the associated affine Deligne–Lusztig variety, let (x)\ell(x) denote the length of xx, let ρ\rho be the half-sum of the positive roots, and let ν(b)\overline{\nu}(b) be the Newton slope sequence associated to bb. Dimension–codimension conjecture. The relationship between the dimension of Xx(b)X_x(b) and the codimension of the associated set of Newton strata is

dimXx(b)+codim((IxI)ν(b)IxI)=(x)2ρ,ν(b).\dim X_x(b)+\operatorname{codim}\bigl((IxI)_{\leq\overline{\nu}(b)}\subseteq IxI\bigr)=\ell(x)-\langle 2\rho,\overline{\nu}(b)\rangle.

This proposes a precise relation between affine Deligne–Lusztig varieties and Newton strata in the Iwahori case; the source gives no resolution status.
