In this talk\, we'll discuss spe cific examples of unitary Shimura varieties whose supersingular loci can b e concretely described in terms of Deligne-Lusztig varieties. By Rapoport- Zink uniformization\, much of the structure of these supersingular loci ca n be understood by studying an associated moduli space of p-divisible grou ps (a Rapoport-Zink space). We'll discuss the geometric structure of these associated Rapoport-Zink spaces as well as some techniques for studying t hem.\n\nThere will be a pre-talk!\n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/UCSD_NTS/36/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
