Pappas–Rapoport flatness conjecture for the symplectic matrix scheme
Pappas–Rapoport flatness conjecture for the symplectic matrix scheme
Let be the scheme of block matrices defined by the equations in the source: its matrices have the form , with , , and the prescribed characteristic polynomial. Let be the totally ramified extension and let be its base ring.
Pappas–Rapoport flatness conjecture. The scheme is flat over
with reduced special fiber.
If true, this would imply flatness of the associated naive local model and provide a special case of the broader ramified local-model flatness conjecture. The supplied source gives no resolution.
