We extend the results of Kottwitz on points of Shimura varieties over finite fields to cases of bad reduction. The "test function" whose twisted orbital integrals appear in the final expression is defined geometrically using deformation spaces of p-divisible groups.
In this article, we prove results about the cohomology of compact unitary group Shimura varieties at split places. In nonendoscopic cases, we are able to give a full description of the cohomology, after restricting to integral Hecke operators at p on the automorphic side. We allow arbitrary ramification at p; even the PEL data may be ramified. This gives a description of the semisimple local Hasse-Weil zeta function in these cases. We also treat cases of nontrivial endoscopy. For this purpose, we give a general stabilization of the expression given in previous work, following the stabilization given by Kottwitz. This introduces endoscopic transfers of the functions $ϕ_{τ,h}$ which were introduced in previous work via deformation spaces of $p$-divisible groups. We state a general conjecture relating these endoscopic transfers with Langlands parameters. We verify this conjecture in all cases of EL type, and deduce new results about the endoscopic part of the cohomology of Shimura varieties. This allows us to simplify the construction of Galois representations attached to conjugate self-dual regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}_n$, as previously constructed by one of us.
We show how the Langlands-Kottwitz method can be used to determine the semisimple local factors of the Hasse-Weil zeta-function of certain Shimura varieties. On the way, we prove a conjecture of Haines and Kottwitz in this special case.
We reprove the Local Langlands Correspondence for $\GL_n$ over $p$-adic fields as well as the existence of $\ell$-adic Galois representations attached to (most) regular algebraic conjugate self-dual cuspidal automorphic representations, for which we prove a local-global compatibility statement as in the book of Harris-Taylor. In contrast to the proofs of the Local Langlands Correspondence given by Henniart and Harris-Taylor our proof completely by-passes the numerical Local Langlands Correspondence of Henniart. Instead, we make use of a previous result describing the inertia-invariant nearby cycles in certain regular situations.
We show how the Langlands-Kottwitz method can be used to determine the local factors of the Hasse-Weil zeta-function of the modular curve at places of bad reduction. On the way, we prove a conjecture of Haines and Kottwitz in this special case.
