Is $\mathcal H/\Gamma$ defined over a number field when $\Gamma$ is not congruent?

Let $\mathcal H$ denote the upper half plane of complex numbers, and $\Gamma$ an arithmetic subgroup of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb Z )$ (not necessarily congruent). I wonder whether $\mathcal H/\...

Representability of moduli problem of elliptic curves with complex multiplication

I'd like to know whether the moduli problem for elliptic curves with complex multiplication by a fixed imaginary quadratic number field $K$ (and with suitable level structure to be picked) is ...

Moduli interpretation for integral models of PEL Shimura variety at parahoric level?

Kottwitz has built canonical integral models for a large family of PEL Shimura varieties, associated to a certain reductive group $G$ over $\mathbb Q$, when the structure level has the form $K = K_pK^...

A local model of a Shimura variety and a local Shimura variety

I have a question about the book on p-adic geometry by Scholze and Weinstein. There are two ‘local theories of Shimura varieties’ written in it. The one is a local model of a Shimura variety. This is ...

Moduli-space interpretation of a morphism of unitary Shimura varieties

Let $G$ be the quasi-split unitary similitude group $GU(2, 1)$, for some choice of imaginary quadratic field $E$; and let $T = GU(1)$ be the torus $Res_{E/Q}\mathbf{G}_m$. Then there's a morphism $\...

About the type of a polarization of an abelian variety

The following is a question I posted about a week ago on Maths stackexchange there, but it didn't bring any discussion nor comment. For this reason I am posting it here also. Let $X$ be an abelian ...

On the moduli stack of abelian varieties without polarization

(I am especially interested in abelian surfaces and characteristic 0). How bad is the moduli stack of abelian varieties (with no polarization or level structure)? Is it an Artin stack? DM (Deligne-...

What is the analogy between the moduli of shtukas and Shimura varieties?

I have heard that moduli spaces of shtukas are supposed to be the analogue of Shimura varieties in the setting of function fields. Could someone more knowledgeable about these objects explain how this ...

Is there a concrete way to show the existence of canonical model for non-modular Shimura curves?

I am trying to read Carayol's article on the construction of Galois representations associated to Hilbert modular forms (http://archive.numdam.org/article/CM_1986__59_2_151_0.pdf). The main geometric ...

Ampleness of the Canonical Bundle for Siegel Modular Varieties

Background Throughout I only work with varieties over $\mathbb{C}$. For $p$ a prime number, Let $Y(p)$ denote the modular curve parametrizing elliptic curves together with full $p$-torsion structure,...

On Universal Abelian surfaces over a Shimura curve.

Let ${\cal O}, {\cal O}'$ be two order in ${\mathrm M}_2({\Bbb R})$ that are sets of all $2 \times 2$ matrices over real number ${\Bbb R}$. Assume that we have the relation ${\cal O}' = a{\cal O}a^{-1}...

Connected cycles of Shimura curves in $A_{g}$ not contained in larger Shimura subvarieties

Is there always a finite family of Shimura curves $(C_{i})$ in $A_{g}$ the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension $g(\geq 2)$, such that the union $\cup C_{i}$ is ...

Moduli space of motives vs moduli space of varieties

A (projective) abelian variety $A$ over the complex numbers is determined by $H^1(A,\mathbb{Z})$ together with its Hodge structure and polarization. This miracle means that one can parametrise ...

Shimura varieties and Maximal conditions

Working with Shimura varieties, I have been convinced to call them (or the families giving rise to them especially in $A_{g}$) somehow the "maximal" families. The motivation of this, has been for ...
