Rapoport's non-emptiness conjecture for Newton strata of Hodge-type Shimura varieties

Let GG be unramified over Qp\mathbb Q_p, let K=KpKpK=K_pK^p be hyperspecial at pp, and let Θ:SK(G,X)(κ())B(G)\Theta:\mathscr{S}_K(G,X)(\kappa(\wp))\to B(G) be the Newton-point map. Define

B(GQp,X):={bB(GQp)κGQp(b)=μ,νGQp(b)μ(G,X)}.B(G_{\mathbb Q_p},X):=\left\{\overline{b}\in B(G_{\mathbb Q_p})\mid \kappa_{G_{\mathbb Q_p}}(\overline{b})=\mu^{\natural},\quad \overline{\nu}_{G_{\mathbb Q_p}}(\overline{b})\preceq \overline{\mu}(G,X)\right\}.

The Newton strata are the locally closed subvarieties Sb=Θ1(b)\mathcal{S}_{\overline{b}}=\Theta^{-1}(\overline{b}) of SK(G,X)Fp\mathscr{S}_K(G,X)\otimes\overline{\mathbb F}_p. Rapoport's non-emptiness conjecture. Every element of B(GQp,X)B(G_{\mathbb Q_p},X) occurs as the Newton point of a geometric point of the special fibre:

Im(Θ)=B(GQp,X).\operatorname{Im}(\Theta)=B(G_{\mathbb Q_p},X).

This asserts that every Newton stratum allowed by the Kottwitz invariant and Newton-point inequality is non-empty. The conjecture is solved: the μ\mu-ordinary case was proved by Wedhorn in the PEL-type setting and by Wortmann for general Hodge-type Shimura varieties, and the cited status evidence identifies the candidate as resolved.
