Colmez conjectured a formula relating the Faltings height of CM abelian varieties to a certain linear combination of log derivatives of $L$-functions. In this paper, we study the case of unitary CM fields and by studying the class functions…
The Colmez conjecture relates the Faltings height of an abelian variety with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of a CM field $E$ to logarithmic derivatives of certain Artin $L$--functions at $s=0$. In this paper, we prove that…
We study certain unitary CM fields whose Galois closure has Galois group $\operatorname{PSL}_2(\mathbb{F}_q) \times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$. After investigating the CM types of these fields, we turn towards Colmez's conjectural formula on…
The Colmez conjecture, proposed by Colmez, is a conjecture expressing the Faltings height of a CM abelian variety in terms of some linear combination of logarithmic derivatives of Artin L-functions. The aim of this paper to prove an…
This is an expository article on the averaged version of Colmez's conjecture, relating Faltings heights of CM abelian varieties to Artin L-functions. It is based on the author's lectures at the Current Developments in Mathematics conference…
In an article published in 1993, P. Colmez formulated a remarkable conjecture, which asserts that the Faltings height of a CM abelian variety can be computed as a linear combination of logarithmic derivatives of Artin $L$-functions. Noting…
We prove that assuming the Colmez conjecture and the ``no Siegel zeros" conjecture, the stable Faltings height of a CM abelian variety over a number field is less than or equal to the logarithm of the root discriminant of the field of…
We prove a collection of results involving Colmez's periods and the Colmez Conjecture. Using Colmez's theory of periods of CM abelian varieties, we propose a definition for the height of a partial CM-type and prove that the Colmez…
We formulate a general conjecture relating Chern classes of subbundles of Gauss-Manin bundles in Arakelov geometry to logarithmic derivatives of Artin L-functions of number fields. This conjecture may be viewed as a far-reaching…
We introduce a number field analogue of the Mertens conjecture and demonstrate its falsity for all but finitely many number fields of any given degree. We establish the existence of a logarithmic limiting distribution for the analogous…
We introduce the notion of a variety (or more generally a motive) of CM-type which generalises the well known notion of abelian variety of CM-type. Just as in that particular case it will turn out that the cohomology of the variety is…
We present an elliptic curve analog of the Stark conjecture for the value of the $L$-function at $s=0$. Although implied by the general Beilinson conjectures, the approach here is very concrete. Several cases are proved.
In this article, we follow Hida's approach to study the mu-invariant of the anticyclotomic projection of p-adic Hecke L-functions for CM fields along a branch character. We prove a conjecture of Gillard on the vanishing of the mu-invariant…
In this article we study the Iwasawa theory for Hecke characters associated with CM abelian varieties and Hilbert modular forms at ordinary primes. We formulate and prove a result concerning the anticyclotomic Iwasawa main conjecture for CM…
The purpose of this paper is to show that the reflex fields of a given CM-field is equipped with a certain combinatorial structure that has not been exploited yet. We prove three theorems using this structure; the first theorem is on the…
We study the Hodge standard conjecture for varieties over finite fields admitting a CM lifting, such as abelian varieties or products of K3 surfaces. For those varieties we show that the signature predicted by the conjecture holds true…
The rank one Gross conjecture for Deligne-Ribet $p$-adic $L$-functions was solved in works of Darmon-Dasgupta-Pollack and Ventullo by the Eisenstein congruence among Hilbert modular forms. The purpose of this paper is to prove an analogue…
We prove that Grothendieck's Hodge standard conjecture holds for abelian varieties in arbitrary characteristic if the Hodge conjecture holds for complex abelian varieties of CM-type. For abelian varieties with no exotic algebraic classes,…
The primary goal of this article is to study $p$-adic Beilinson conjectures in the presence of exceptional zeros for Artin motives over CM fields. In more precise terms, we address a question raised by Hida and Tilouine on the order of…
Let $F/K$ be an abelian extension of number fields with $F$ either CM or totally real and $K$ totally real. If $F$ is CM and the Brumer-Stark conjecture holds for $F/K$, we construct a family of $G(F/K)$--equivariant Hecke characters for…
