Abstract

We determine the set of connected components of closed affine Deligne–Lusztig varieties for special maximal compact subgroups of split connected reductive groups. We show that there is a transitive group action on this set. Thus such an affine Deligne–Lusztig variety has isolated points if and only if its dimension is 0. We also obtain a description of the set of these varieties that are zero-dimensional.
