Title: Rapoport–Zink spaces and close p-adic fields

Speaker: Sebastian Bartling (Universität Duisburg–Essen)

Abstract: I want to explain how to put Rapoport–Zink spaces and their function-field versions due to Hartl–Viehmann into a profinite family using the philosophy of close p-adic fields. If time permits, I want to sketch how one may apply this construction in order to prove the Arithmetic Fundamental Lemma in the function field case. This is work in progress with Andreas Mihatsch.
