Kudla–Rapoport arithmetic intersection conjecture for special cycles

Let x1,,xnVx_1,\dots,x_n\in {\mathbb V}, where V{\mathbb V} is the hermitian space of special homomorphisms, and let hh be its hermitian form. Put

B=(h(xi,xj))1i,jn.B=(h(x_i,x_j))_{1\leq i,j\leq n}.

The special cycles Z(x1),,Z(xn){\mathcal Z}(x_1),\dots,{\mathcal Z}(x_n) are intersected in the unitary Rapoport–Zink space NE/F0(1,n1){\mathcal N}^0_{E/F}(1,n-1). Kudla–Rapoport conjecture. Their arithmetic intersection number is

Z(x1),,Z(xn):=χ(OZ(x1)LLOZ(xn))=α(1n,B)α(1n,1n).\langle {\mathcal Z}(x_1),\dots,{\mathcal Z}(x_n)\rangle:=\chi(O_{{\mathcal Z}(x_1)}\otimes^{\mathbb L}\dots\otimes^{\mathbb L}O_{{\mathcal Z}(x_n)})=\frac{\alpha'(1_n,B)}{\alpha(1_n,1_n)}.

Here χ\chi is the Euler–Poincaré characteristic, L\otimes^{\mathbb L} is the derived tensor product, α\alpha is the representation density, and α\alpha' is its derivative. The conjecture was proved by Li and Zhang, so it is solved.
