Mazur's inequality and laffaille's theorem

arXiv:1509.00574

Abstract

We look at various questions related to filtrations in -adic Hodgetheory, using a blend of building and Tannakian tools. Specifically,Fontaine and Rapoport used a theorem of Laffaille on filtered isocrystalsto establish a converse of Mazur's inequality for isocrystals. Wegeneralize both results to the setting of (filtered) -isocrystalsand also establish an analog of Totaro's -product theoremfor the Harder-Narasimhan filtration of Fargues.
