Some remarks on p-adic period domains

Sean Howe
(University of Utah)
Abstract

We will describe aspects of the geometry of non-minuscule rigid analytic period domains and their covering spaces, and pose some questions about p-adic period mappings and period images by analogy with the complex analytic theory.
