Mustafin Models of Projective Varieties and Vector Bundles.

Mustafin varieties are well-studied degenerations of projective spaces induced by a choice of integral points in a Bruhat–Tits building. In recent work, Annette Werner and the author initiated the study of degenerations of plane curves obtained by Mustafin varieties by means of arithmetic geometry. Moreover, we applied these techniques to construct models of vector bundles on plane curves with strongly semistable reduction. In this work, we take a Groebner basis approach to the more general problem of studying degenerations of projective varieties. Our methods include determining the behaviour of Groebner bases under substitution over unique factorisation rings. Finally, we outline applications to the adic Simpson correspondence, when the respective projective variety is a curve. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
