Data for Shimura varieties intersecting the Torelli locus

Wanlin Li, Elena Mantovan and Rachel Pries

Vol. 343 (2026), No. 1, 179–210
Abstract

For infinitely many Hurwitz spaces parametrizing cyclic covers of the projective line, we provide a method to determine the integral PEL datum of the Shimura variety that contains the image of the Hurwitz space under the Torelli morphism.
