Proposition 6.35.
With notations as above, let be either the closure of an orbit or
a toric subvariety. Then

sense of Definition 2.53. Moreover, its global height is given by

Proof.
In view of propositions 6.25, 6.27 and
the fact that the restriction of the canonical metric to closures of
orbits and to toric subvarieties is the canonical metric
(corollaries 5.23 and 5.25), we are reduced to treat
the case .
Thus we assume that has dimension .
We next prove that is integrable with respect to and that the corresponding global height is zero.
By a polarization argument, we can reduce to the case
.
The proof is done by induction on .
For short, write and .
Let . By equation (2.40), for each ,

As shown in (6.14), the last term in the equality
above vanishes. Hence

The divisor is a linear combination of subvarieties of the
form , , and the restriction of the
canonical metric to these varieties coincides with their canonical
metrics. With the inductive hypothesis, this shows that
is integrable with respect to .
Adding up the resulting equalities over all places,
|
|
|
Using again the inductive hypothesis, .
We now prove the statements of the theorem.
Again by a polarization argument, we can also reduce to the case when .
By the definition of
approachable adelic toric metrics, is
also integrable with respect to . Furthermore,

for any choice of sections intersecting properly.
Hence, the classes of and of agree up to
. But the latter is the global height of

Let be the complete regular fan of induced by

Write for short.
The fact that is saturated implies that has
degree 1 and so .
By the functoriality of the global height (Theorem

Since ,
we deduce the result.
