Newton strata in Levi subgroups

Certain Iwahori double cosets in the loop group of a reductive group, known under the names of P -alcoves or ( J , w , δ ) -alcoves, play an important role in the study of affine Deligne–Lusztig varieties. For such an Iwahori double coset, its Newton stratification is related to the Newton stratification of an Iwahori double coset in a Levi subgroup. We study this relationship further, providing in particular a bijection between the occurring Newton strata. As an application, we prove a conjecture of Dong-Gyu Lim, giving a non-emptiness criterion for basic affine Deligne–Lusztig varieties.
