Toroidal compactifications of torsion free local complex hyperbolic spaces

Abstract

Let B be the complex n-dimensional ball and X' be the toroidal compactification of a quotient B/G by a torsion free lattice G of SU(n,1). For an arbitrary G-rational boundary point p, denote by U(p) the commutant of the unipotent radical of the stabilizer of p in SU(n,1) and put G(U) for the subgroup of G, generated by the intersections of G with U(p) for all G-rational boundary points p. The present note establishes that the fundamental group of X' is isomorphic to the quotient G / G(U). As a consequence, the first integral homology group of X' turns to be a quotient of the first integral homology group of B/G by a finite group. The work shows that for any natural number N, there is a normal subgroup G(N) of G of finite index, such that the unramified covering of B/G by B/G(N), induced by the identity of the ball B extends to a covering of the corresponding toroidal compactifications with ramification index greater than N over the toroidal compactifying divisor of B/G(N). The argument exploits the residual finiteness of the lattices in SU(n,1). In the case of a complex dimension 2, the geometric genus of X' equals 1. If X' is not of general type, then the irregularity of X' does not exceed 2 and equals 2 only when X' is birational to an abelian surface. The torsion free surfaces X' of minimal volume are characterized by the Kodaira-Enriques classification types of their minimal models, as well as by lower and upper bounds on the number of the cusps.

Shrinking dynamic on multidimensional tropical series

Let $Ω\subset\mathbb R^n$ be a compact convex domain. An $Ω$-tropical series is a nonnegative, concave, integral-slope, piecewise-affine function on $Ω$ that vanishes on $\partialΩ$. For a finite set $P\subsetΩ^\circ$, we study the least such function above prescribed initial data whose corner locus contains $P$. It is obtained by repeatedly applying one-point shrinking operators $G_p$. We prove that every fair order of these operators stabilizes after finitely many nontrivial steps. We also describe an event-driven implementation that records the lowest monomials at each point and updates only affected watcher lists. Finally, we show that, on every compact subset of $Ω^\circ$, the resulting dynamics can be approximated by a finite path whose intermediate tropical hypersurfaces have only mild singularities on that compact set; equivalently, the corresponding local cells of the dual regular subdivision contain no lattice points other than their vertices.

A stacky $p$-adic Riemann--Hilbert correspondence on Hitchin-small locus

Let $C$ be an algebraically closed perfectoid field over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with the ring of integer $\mathcal{O}_C$ and the infinitesimal thickening $\Ainf$. Let $\mathfrak X$ be a semi-stable formal scheme over $\mathcal{O}_C$ with a fixed flat lifting $\widetilde{\mathfrak X}$ over $\Ainf$. Let $X$ be the generic fiber of $\mathfrak{X}$ and $\widetilde X$ be its lifting over $\BdRp$ induced by $\widetilde{\mathfrak X}$. Let $\MIC_r(\widetilde X)^{{\rm H}\text{-small}}$ and $\rL\rS_r(X,\BBdRp)^{{\rm H}\text{-small}}$ be the $v$-stacks of rank-$r$ Hitchin-small integrable connections on $X_{\et}$ and $\BBdRp$-local systems on $X_{v}$, respectively. In this paper, we establish an equivalence between these two stacks by introducing a new period sheaf with connection $(\calO\bB_{\dR,\pd}^+,\rd)$ on $X_{v}$.

A refinement of the coherence conjecture of Pappas and Rapoport

The coherence conjecture of Pappas and Rapoport, proved by Zhu, asserts the equality of dimensions for the global sections of a line bundle over a spherical Schubert variety in the affine Grassmannian and those of another line bundle over a certain union of Schubert varieties in a partial affine flag variety. We refine this equality of dimensions to an isomorphism of representations. The comparison is established by introducing a parahoric Bruhat-Tits group scheme $\mathcal{G}$ over the affine line, ramified at 0. We further strengthen this comparison by equipping any line bundle on the global Schubert variety of $\mathcal{G}$ with a unique equivariant structure under the global jet group scheme. As an application, we obtain new relations among affine Demazure modules.
