摘要:
We prove that the existence of an automorphism of finite order on a Q-variety X implies the existence of algebraic linear relations between the logarithm of certain periods of X and the logarithm of special values of the F-function. This implies that a slight variation of results by Anderson, Colmez and Gross on the periods of CM abelian varieties is valid for a larger class of CM motives. In particular, we prove a weak form of the period conjecture of Gross-Deligne [11, p. 205](1). Our proof relies on the arithmetic fixed-point formula (equivariant arithmetic Riemann-Roch theorem) proved by K. Kohler and the second author in [13] and the vanishing of the equivariant analytic torsion for the de Rham. complex.
