Colmez's original height formula conjecture

Let CM0{\mathcal{CM}}^0 be the space of class functions associated with CM-types, and let htht and Z(⋅,s)Z(\mathord\cdot,s) be the linear height and logarithmic-derivative functionals defined on it. For a∈CM0a\in{\mathcal{CM}}^0, define its dual by

a∨(g)=a(g−1)a^\vee(g)=a(g^{-1})

for g∈Gal⁡(Q‾/Q)g\in\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb Q}/\mathbb Q). Colmez's original conjecture. For every a∈CM0a\in{\mathcal{CM}}^0,

ht(a)=−Z(a∨,0).ht(a)=-Z(a^\vee,0).

This is Colmez's functional formulation of the relationship between CM Faltings heights and logarithmic derivatives of Artin LL-functions. The source gives no resolution status for the full conjecture; related averaged versions are known, but the asserted identity for every class function remains the target in the cited discussion.
