EKOR strata on Shimura varieties with parahoric reduction

Abstract

We investigate the geometry of the special fiber of the integral model of a Shimura variety with parahoric level at a given prime place. To be more precise, we deal with the EKOR stratification which interpolates between the Ekedahl-Oort and Kottwitz-Rapoport stratifications. In the Siegel case we give a geometric description by suitably generalizing the theory of $G$-zips of Moonen, Wedhorn, Pink and Ziegler to our context.
