On the Rapoport-Zink space for $\mathrm{G}\mathrm{U}(2,4)$ over a ramified prime

In this work, we study the supersingular locus of the Shimura variety associated to the unitary group $\mathrm{G}\mathrm{U}(2,4)$ over a ramified prime. We show that the associated Rapoport-Zink space is flat, and we give an explicit description of the irreducible components of the reduction modulo $p$ of the basic locus. In particular, we show that these are universally homeomorphic to either a generalized Deligne-Lusztig variety for a symplectic group or to the closure of a vector bundle over a classical Deligne-Lusztig variety for an orthogonal group. Our results are confirmed in the group-theoretical setting by the reduction method à la Deligne and Lusztig and the study of the admissible set.
