Let $K$ be a local field. Let $d \geq 2$. The rigid analytic space
$\Omega^d$ is $\mathbb{P}^{d-1}(\mathbb{C}_p)$ minus all hyperplanes
which are rational over $K$. Cerednik used $\Omega^{2}$ for the
$p$-adic uniformization of some Shimura curves. This is similar to the
uniformization of Riemann surfaces by the upper half plane. Drinfeld
interpreted $\Omega^{d}$ as a moduli problem of $p$-divisible groups
and deduced Cerednik's result from it.
We define new moduli problems and show that the lead also to
$\Omega^d$. According to Kudla and Rapoport this leads to new examples
of $p$-adic uniformization
