| contents | 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 that the Faltings height is an average of transcendental quantities summed over the embeddings of a number field of definition of the abelian variety, we propose a refinement of this conjecture, which identifies each of these transcendental quantities. We also show how our conjecture would imply the existence of fine reciprocity laws for Siegel modular forms with rational coefficients evaluated at CM points, and we prove our conjecture for elliptic curves, using old results of Siegel and Hasse on elliptic units. |
