The existence conjecture for integral models of Shimura varieties of abelian type

Fix a prime pp, a Shimura datum (G,X)({\mathbb G},X) of abelian type, a prime of its reflex field above pp, the corresponding local reflex field EE, and a parahoric subgroup KpG(Qp)K_p\subset {\mathbb G}(\mathbb Q_p). Let G=GQpG={\mathbb G}_{\mathbb Q_p}, let {μ}\{\mu\} be the associated local conjugacy class, and assume a local model MKp(G,{μ}){\rm M}_{K_p}(G,\{\mu\}) as above is given. Write Gc=G/Zs{\mathcal G}^c={\mathcal G}/{\mathcal Z}_s, where Zs{\mathcal Z}_s is the Zariski closure of the central torus ZsGZ_s\subset G in G{\mathcal G}.

The integral-model conjecture. There is a scheme SKp(G,X){\mathscr S}_{K_p}({\mathbb G},X) over

Spec(OE){\operatorname{Spec}({\mathcal O}_E)}

with a right action of G(Afp){\mathbb G}({\mathbb A}_f^p) satisfying: (a) sufficiently small open compact subgroups KpK^p act freely, and the quotients are finite-type OE{\mathcal O}_E-schemes extending the corresponding generic Shimura varieties, with SKp=limKpSKpKp{\mathscr S}_{K_p}=\varprojlim_{K^p}{\mathscr S}_{K_pK^p}; (b) for every discrete valuation ring ROER\supset{\mathcal O}_E of mixed characteristic (0,p)(0,p), the map SKp(R)SKp(R[1/p]){\mathscr S}_{K_p}(R)\to{\mathscr S}_{K_p}(R[1/p]) is a bijection; and (c) there is a smooth morphism of stacks

λ:SKp(G,X)[(GcZpOE)\MKp(G,{μ})]\lambda:{\mathscr S}_{K_p}({\mathbb G},X)\to[({\mathcal G}^c\otimes_{{\mathbb Z}_p}{\mathcal O}_E)\backslash {\rm M}_{K_p}(G,\{\mu\})]

that is invariant under the prime-to-pp action and whose generic fiber is the canonical principal GEc{\mathbb G}^c_E-bundle.

These properties formulate the expected integral model for parahoric level. The source gives no resolution of this candidate in the supplied material, although it notes that the construction is known in some cases and uniqueness is unclear in general.
