Arithmetic Siegel-Weil formula on $\mathcal{X}_{0}(N)$

Number Theory 2025-07-23 v2

Abstract

We establish the arithmetic Siegel-Weil formula on the modular curve X0(N)\mathcal{X}_{0}(N) for arbitrary level NN, i.e., we relate the arithmetic degrees of special cycles on X0(N)\mathcal{X}_{0}(N) to the derivatives of Fourier coefficients of a genus 2 Eisenstein series. We prove this formula by a precise identity between the local arithmetic intersection numbers on the Rapoport-Zink space associated to X0(N)\mathcal{X}_{0}(N) and the derivatives of local representation densities of quadratic forms. When NN is odd and square-free, this gives a different proof of the main results in [SSY22]. This local identity is proved by relating it to an identity in one dimension higher, but at hyperspecial level.
