Rapoport-Zink Spaces For Local P-Shtukas and Their Local Models

Abstract: In this article we first survey the analogy between Shimura varieties (resp. Rapoport-Zink spaces) and moduli stacks for global G-shtukas (resp. Rapooprt Zink spaces for local P-shtukas). This part is intended to enrich the dictionary between the arithmetic of number fields and function fields a bit further. Furthermore, to complete this picture, we also study some local properties of Rapoport-Zink spaces for local P-shtukas by constructing local models for them. This provides a "local" complementary to a previous work of the author, which was devoted to the study of the local models for the moduli stacks of global G-shtukas. We also discuss some of its applications.
