Abstract

Let F/ be a totally real number field of degree n. We explicitly evaluate a certain sum of rational functions over a infinite fan of F-rational polyhedral cones in terms of the norm map F . This completes Sczech's combinatorial proof of Satake's conjecture connecting the special values of L-series associated to cusp singularities with intersection numbers of divisors in their toroidal resolutions.
