Dimensions of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties : a new approach via labeled folded alcove walks and root operators / Elizabeth Milićević, Petra Schwer, Anne Thomas.

Let G be a reductive group over the field F=k((t)), where k is an algebraic closure of a finite field, and let W be the (extended) affine Weyl group of G. The associated affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties X_x(b), which are indexed by elements b \in G(F) and x \in W, were introduced by Rapoport. Basic...
