Abstract:
We characterize the nonemptiness and dimension problems for an affine Deligne-Lusztig variety \(X_x(b)\) in the affine flag variety in terms of galleries that are positively folded with respect to a chimney. If the parabolic subgroup associated to the Newton point of \(b\) has rank 1, we then prove nonemptiness for a certain class of Iwahori-Weyl group elements \(x\) by explicitly constructing such galleries.
