Period mappings in p-adic Hodge theory arise from structure given by comparison theorems for cohomology of varieties over p-adic fields. The universal case of such period maps are the Hodge and Hodge-Tate period morphisms on infinite level local Shimura varieties (and their non-minuscule generalization). I will talk about joint work with Sean Howe where we prove a transcendence property of these period maps.
