Wan–Xiao–Zhang slope conjecture for overconvergent p-adic modular forms

Let pp be a prime, let W\mathcal{W} be the pp-adic weight space, and let Wη\mathcal{W}_\eta be one of its components. For a weight κWη\kappa\in\mathcal{W}_\eta, write ν1(κ)ν2(κ)\nu_1(\kappa)\leq\nu_2(\kappa)\leq\dotsb for the slopes of the Newton polygon of the Fredholm series P(κ,t)P(\kappa,t), and let w(κ)w(\kappa) be the corresponding weight-space parameter. Wan–Xiao–Zhang slope conjecture. There exists an r>0r>0 such that, for each component Wη\mathcal{W}_\eta, the Newton polygon of P(κ,t)P(\kappa,t) depends only on vp(w(κ))v_p(w(\kappa)) whenever 0<vp(w(κ))<r0<v_p(w(\kappa))<r, its break-point indices are independent of κ\kappa on this region, and for every break-point index ii one has μ(ai,η)=0\mu(a_{i,\eta})=0. Moreover, the sequence

{νi(κ)vp(w(κ))}\left\{\frac{\nu_i(\kappa)}{v_p(w(\kappa))}\right\}

is a finite union of arithmetic progressions independent of κ\kappa for 0<vp(w(κ))<r0<v_p(w(\kappa))<r and κWη\kappa\in\mathcal{W}_\eta. This conjecture describes the asymptotic slopes of overconvergent pp-adic modular forms near the boundary of weight space. It is known completely for tame level N=1N=1 when p=2p=2 or 33, while the general boundary-slope behavior and the arithmetic-progression assertion remain open.
