Pappas–Rapoport flatness conjecture for orthogonal spin local models
Pappas–Rapoport flatness conjecture for orthogonal spin local models
Let be a complete discretely valued field with ring of integers , uniformizer , and residue field of characteristic . Let with a split non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form, let , and let be a self-dual periodic lattice chain. The naive local model has generic fiber the orthogonal Grassmannian , and the spin local model is the closed subscheme defined by the spin -condition. Pappas–Rapoport's conjecture. The spin local model is flat over . This conjecture proposes that the spin condition corrects the non-flatness of the naive local model for split even orthogonal similitude groups at arbitrary parahoric level. The source does not state whether the conjecture is resolved.
