A Gross-Zagier formula for quaternion algebras over totally real fields

چکیده
We prove a higher dimensional generalization of Gross and Zagier’s theorem on the factorization of differences of singular moduli. Their result is proved by giving a counting formula for the number of isomorphisms between elliptic curves with complex multiplication by two different imaginary quadratic fields K and K′, when the curves are reduced modulo a supersingular prime and its powers. Equivalently, the Gross-Zagier formula counts optimal embeddings of the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic field into particular maximal orders in Bp,∞, the definite quaternion algebra over Q ramified only at p and infinity. Our work gives an analogous counting formula for the number of simultaneous embeddings of the rings of integers of primitive CM fields into superspecial orders in definite quaternion algebras over totally real fields of strict class number 1. Our results can also be viewed as a counting formula for the number of isomorphisms modulo p|p between abelian varieties with CM by different fields. Our counting formula can also be used to determine which superspecial primes appear in the factorizations of differences of values of Siegel modular functions at CM points associated to two different CM fields, and to give a bound on those supersingular primes which can appear. In the special case of Jacobians of genus 2 curves, this provides information about the factorizations of numerators of Igusa invariants, and so is also relevant to the problem of constructing genus 2 curves for use in cryptography.

Arithmetic Theta Lifts and the Arithmetic Gan–gross–prasad Conjecture for Unitary Groups
In 1980s, Gross–Zagier [GZ86] established a formula that relates the Neron–Tate height of Heegner points on modular curves to the central derivative of certain L-functions associated to modular forms. Around the same time, Waldspurger proved a formula, relating toric periods of modular forms to the central value of certain L-functions. Gross put both of these formula in the framework of represe...
متن کاملConstructions of Orthonormal Lattices and Quaternion Division Algebras for Totally Real Number Fields
We describe some constructions of orthonormal lattices in totally real subfields of cyclotomic fields, obtained by endowing their ring of integers with a trace form. We also describe constructions of quaternion division algebras over such fields. Orthonormal lattices and quaternion division algebras over totally real fields find use in wireless networks in ultra wideband communication, and we d...
متن کاملSpecial Values of L-functions and the Arithmetic of Darmon Points
Building on our previous work on rigid analytic uniformizations, we introduce Darmon points on Jacobians of Shimura curves attached to quaternion algebras over Q and formulate conjectures about their rationality properties. Moreover, if K is a real quadratic field, E is an elliptic curve over Q without complex multiplication and χ is a ring class character such that LK(E,χ, 1) 6= 0 we prove a G...
متن کاملFamilies of Ramanujan Graphs and Quaternion Algebras
Expander graphs are graphs in which the neighbors of any given “not too large” set of vertices X form a large set relative to the size of X—rumors tend to spread very fast. Among those, the Ramanujan graphs are extremal in their expansion properties. To be precise, the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix have an extremal property that guarantees good expansion properties. Expanders, and hence R...
متن کاملCM values of automorphic Green functions on orthogonal groups over totally real fields
Generalizing work of Gross–Zagier and Schofer on singular moduli, we study the CM values of regularized theta lifts of harmonic Whittaker forms. We compute the archimedian part of the height pairing of arithmetic special divisors and CM cycles on Shimura varieties associated to quadratic spaces over an arbitrary totally real base field. As a special case, we obtain an explicit formula for the n...
