Proof.

Note that SS is a closed point of 𝔛~β€²\tilde{\mathfrak{X}}^{\prime} and hence proper over K~\tilde{K}. Therefore also YY is proper over K~\tilde{K} since it is a closed subset of ΞΉ~βˆ’1​(S)\tilde{\iota}^{-1}(S) and ΞΉ\iota is proper by [Tem00, Corollary 4.4]. Let DD be the Cartier divisor on 𝔛′′\mathfrak{X}^{\prime\prime} induced by hh as in Proposition 2.11 such that c1​(π’ͺ⁑(h∘p𝔛′))n.Y=Dn.Yc_{1}\left(\mathcal{O}(h\circ p_{\mathfrak{X}^{\prime}})\right)^{n}.Y=D^{n}.Y. We show by induction that for all 0≀l≀n0\leq l\leq n there is a strata cycle YlY_{l} of dimension nβˆ’ln-l whose components are contained in YY such that deg(Dn.Y)=deg(Dnβˆ’l.Yl)\Deg(D^{n}.Y)=\Deg(D^{n-l}.Y_{l}). The case l=0l=0 is clear by taking Y0:=YY_{0}:=Y. Now let l<nl<n and YlY_{l} be as claimed. Let Yβ€²Y^{\prime} be a stratum of YlY_{l}, such that Yβ€²Y^{\prime} is associated to an ll-dimensional open face Ο„β€²\tau^{\prime} of 𝔇\mathfrak{D}, i.e. Yβ€²=red𝔛′′⁑(pπ”›β€²β€²βˆ’1​(Ο„β€²))Y^{\prime}=\red_{\mathfrak{X}^{\prime\prime}}(p_{\mathfrak{X}^{\prime\prime}}^{-1}(\tau^{\prime})) with uβˆˆΟ„β€²Β―u\in\overline{\tau^{\prime}} by the stratum face correspondence (Proposition 2.8). Using Ο„β€²βŠ†Ο„βŠ†β„n\tau^{\prime}\subseteq\tau\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}, there is an affine linear function a:ℝn→ℝa:\mathbb{R}^{n}\rightarrow\mathbb{R} such that h|Ο„β€²=a|Ο„β€²h\Big|_{\tau^{\prime}}=a\Big|_{\tau^{\prime}}. Then hβˆ’a|Ο„h-a\Big|_{\tau} defines a Cartier divisor DYβ€²D_{Y^{\prime}} on 𝔛′′\mathfrak{X}^{\prime\prime} by Proposition 2.11 which is numerically equivalent to DD on YY by Lemma 2.13 and which is trivial on Yβ€²Y^{\prime} because hβˆ’a|Ο„β€²=0h-a\Big|_{\tau^{\prime}}=0. Hence, as Yβ€²Β―\overline{Y^{\prime}} is a strata subset, DYβ€².Yβ€²Β―D_{Y^{\prime}}.\overline{Y^{\prime}} is a strata cycle. Write Yl=βˆ‘Yβ€²mY′​Yβ€²Β―Y_{l}=\sum_{Y^{\prime}}m_{Y^{\prime}}\overline{Y^{\prime}} where the sum ranges over a finite number of nβˆ’ln-l-dimensional strata of 𝔛~β€²β€²\tilde{\mathfrak{X}}^{\prime\prime} contained in YY. Then we can calculate:

deg(Dn.Y)\displaystyle\Deg(D^{n}.Y) =deg(Dnβˆ’l.Yl)\displaystyle=\Deg\left(D^{n-l}.Y_{l}\right)
=deg(Dnβˆ’l.βˆ‘Yβ€²mYβ€²Yβ€²Β―)\displaystyle=\Deg\left(D^{n-l}.\sum_{Y^{\prime}}m_{Y^{\prime}}\overline{Y^{\prime}}\right)
=deg(βˆ‘Yβ€²mYβ€²Dnβˆ’l.Yβ€²Β―)\displaystyle=\Deg\left(\sum_{Y^{\prime}}m_{Y^{\prime}}D^{n-l}.\overline{Y^{\prime}}\right)
=deg(βˆ‘Yβ€²mYβ€²Dnβˆ’lβˆ’1.(DYβ€².Yβ€²Β―))\displaystyle=\Deg\left(\sum_{Y^{\prime}}m_{Y^{\prime}}D^{n-l-1}.(D_{Y^{\prime}}.\overline{Y^{\prime}})\right)
=deg(Dnβˆ’lβˆ’1.βˆ‘Yβ€²mYβ€²DYβ€².Yβ€²Β―)\displaystyle=\Deg\left(D^{n-l-1}.\sum_{Y^{\prime}}m_{Y^{\prime}}D_{Y^{\prime}}.\overline{Y^{\prime}}\right)

and Yl+1:=βˆ‘Yβ€²mY′​DYβ€².Yβ€²Β―Y_{l+1}:=\sum_{Y^{\prime}}m_{Y^{\prime}}D_{Y^{\prime}}.\overline{Y^{\prime}} is a strata cycle as claimed. We use this for l=nl=n to see that deg(Dn.Y)=deg(Yn)\Deg(D^{n}.Y)=\Deg(Y_{n}) for a strata cycle YnY_{n} of dimension 00 contained in YY. Its components are strata points SiS_{i} of 𝔛′′\mathfrak{X}^{\prime\prime} which are mapped by ΞΉ\iota to the point SS corresponding to Ο„\tau. Now let π”˜β€²βŠ†π”›β€²\mathfrak{U}^{\prime}\subseteq\mathfrak{X}^{\prime} be a formal open subset with an Γ©tale morphism ψ:π”˜β€²β†’π”›β‘(𝒏,𝒂)\psi:\mathfrak{U}^{\prime}\rightarrow\mathfrak{X}(\boldsymbol{n},\boldsymbol{a}) such that SS is the distinguished stratum of π”˜β€²\mathfrak{U}^{\prime} (cf. Proposition 2.5) and define π”˜β€²β€²:=ΞΉβˆ’1​(π”˜β€²)\mathfrak{U}^{\prime\prime}:=\iota^{-1}(\mathfrak{U}^{\prime}). Note that there is no factor 𝔛⁑(m)\mathfrak{X}(m) because Ο„\tau is of maximal dimension. As the strata occurring in the intersection process correspond to open faces of 𝔇\mathfrak{D} with vertex uu, their intersection with π”˜β€²β€²\mathfrak{U}^{\prime\prime} is nonempty. Hence we may calculate the multiplicities of YnY_{n} locally on π”˜β€²β€²\mathfrak{U}^{\prime\prime}. The stratification of π”˜~β€²β€²\tilde{\mathfrak{U}}^{\prime\prime} is obtained by the preimages of the strata of 𝔛~​(𝒏,𝒂)β€²\tilde{\mathfrak{X}}(\boldsymbol{n},\boldsymbol{a})^{\prime} (see proof of Proposition 2.8) with respect to the base change Οˆβ€²:π”˜β€²β€²β†’π”›β€‹(𝒏,𝒂)β€²\psi^{\prime}:\mathfrak{U}^{\prime\prime}\rightarrow\mathfrak{X}(\boldsymbol{n},\boldsymbol{a})^{\prime} of ψ\psi (cf. Construction 2.6). Let Yu=ψ~′​(π”˜~β€²β€²βˆ©Y)Β―Y_{u}=\overline{\tilde{\psi}^{\prime}(\tilde{\mathfrak{U}}^{\prime\prime}\cap Y)} be the irreducible component in 𝔛~​(𝒏,𝒂)β€²\tilde{\mathfrak{X}}(\boldsymbol{n},\boldsymbol{a})^{\prime} corresponding to uu and DuD_{u} the Cartier divisor on 𝔛​(𝒏,𝒂)β€²\mathfrak{X}(\boldsymbol{n},\boldsymbol{a})^{\prime} whose pullback gives the Cartier divisor DD associated to hh on π”˜β€²β€²\mathfrak{U}^{\prime\prime} (cf. proof of Proposition 2.11). By applying the modifications of DD in the induction step also to DuD_{u} we obtain a strata cycle Ynt=βˆ‘mj​PjY_{n}^{t}=\sum m_{j}P_{j} of 𝔛~​(𝒏,𝒂)β€²\tilde{\mathfrak{X}}(\boldsymbol{n},\boldsymbol{a})^{\prime} whose pullback is YnY_{n} (as the intersection product is compatible with flat pullback by [Ful98, Proposition 2.3(d)]) and which has the same degree as Dun.YuD_{u}^{n}.Y_{u} using Lemma 2.13. Now let

val:(𝔾m𝒏)Kan\displaystyle\val:(\mathbb{G}_{m}^{\boldsymbol{n}})_{K}^{\textup{an}} →ℝ𝒏,\displaystyle\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^{\boldsymbol{n}},
q\displaystyle q ↦(βˆ’log⁑q⁑(x01),…,βˆ’log⁑q⁑(x0​n0),…,βˆ’log⁑q⁑(xp​1),…,βˆ’log⁑q⁑(xp​np))\displaystyle\mapsto(-\log q(x_{01}),...,-\log q(x_{0n_{0}}),...,-\log q(x_{p1}),...,-\log q(x_{pn_{p}}))

and Ξ£:={π’˜βˆˆβ„β‰₯0𝒏|wi​1+…+wi​ni≀v(ai),0≀i≀p}\Sigma:=\left\{\boldsymbol{w}\in\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}^{\boldsymbol{n}}\;\Big|\;w_{i1}+...+w_{in_{i}}\leq v(a_{i}),0\leq i\leq p\right\}. As we have an isomorphism

𝔛​(𝒏,𝒂)an​→~​valβˆ’1⁑(Ξ£)\mathfrak{X}(\boldsymbol{n},\boldsymbol{a})^{\textup{an}}\tilde{\rightarrow}\val^{-1}(\Sigma)

and using [Gub13, Corollary 6.15], we find that YuY_{u} is a toric variety with fan given by the cones generated by Ξ”β€²βˆ’u\Delta^{\prime}-u for Ξ”β€²βˆˆπ”‡\Delta^{\prime}\in\mathfrak{D} with vertex uu (in fact we identify Ο„\tau with Ξ£\Sigma by forgetting about the coordinate with index 00 for each ii). Du|YuD_{u}\Big|_{Y_{u}} is given up to multiplication by a constant by the divisor Duβ€²D^{\prime}_{u} on YuY_{u} associated to the linear function hβ€²:=h(β‹…+u)βˆ’h(u)h^{\prime}:=h(\cdot+u)-h(u). By [Ful93, 3.4,5.3] we have

λ⁑(PDuβ€²)=deg(Dβ€²un.Yu)n!,\lambda(P_{D^{\prime}_{u}})=\frac{\Deg({D^{\prime}}_{u}^{n}.Y_{u})}{n!},

where

PDuβ€²={yβˆˆβ„n|⟨z,yβŸ©β‰€ΟˆDu′​(z)=h′​(z)β€‹βˆ€zβˆˆβ„n}=βˆ‡h′​(0)P_{D^{\prime}_{u}}=\left\{y\in\mathbb{R}^{n}\;\Big|\;\langle z,y\rangle\leq\psi_{D^{\prime}_{u}}(z)=h^{\prime}(z)\;\forall z\in\mathbb{R}^{n}\right\}=\nabla h^{\prime}(0)

and Ξ»\lambda denotes the standard Lebesgue measure. For the last term we get

βˆ‡h′​(0)\displaystyle\nabla h^{\prime}(0) ={pβˆˆβ„n|βˆ€xβˆˆΟ„βˆ’u:hβ€²(0)+⟨x,pβŸ©β‰€hβ€²(x)}\displaystyle=\left\{p\in\mathbb{R}^{n}\;\Big|\;\forall x\in\tau-u\;:\;h^{\prime}(0)+\langle x,p\rangle\leq h^{\prime}(x)\right\}
={pβˆˆβ„n|βˆ€xβˆˆΟ„βˆ’u:⟨x,pβŸ©β‰€h(x+u)βˆ’h(u)}\displaystyle=\left\{p\in\mathbb{R}^{n}\;\Big|\;\forall x\in\tau-u\;:\;\langle x,p\rangle\leq h(x+u)-h(u)\right\}
={pβˆˆβ„n|βˆ€xβˆˆΟ„:h(u)+⟨xβˆ’u,pβŸ©β‰€h(x)}\displaystyle=\left\{p\in\mathbb{R}^{n}\;\Big|\;\forall x\in\tau\;:\;h(u)+\langle x-u,p\rangle\leq h(x)\right\}
=βˆ‡h​(u).\displaystyle=\nabla h(u).

Hence

1n!​deg⁑(Ynt)=deg(Dβ€²un.Yu)n!=λ⁑(PDuβ€²)=λ⁑(βˆ‡h​(u))=MA⁑(h)​({u}).\frac{1}{n!}\Deg(Y_{n}^{t})=\frac{\Deg({D^{\prime}}_{u}^{n}.Y_{u})}{n!}=\lambda(P_{D^{\prime}_{u}})=\lambda(\nabla h(u))=\MA(h)(\{u\}).

With ΞΉβ€²\iota^{\prime} denoting the morphism 𝔛​(𝒏,𝒂)′→𝔛⁑(𝒏,𝒂)\mathfrak{X}(\boldsymbol{n},\boldsymbol{a})^{\prime}\rightarrow\mathfrak{X}(\boldsymbol{n},\boldsymbol{a}) we conclude

deg(Dn.Y)=deg(Yn)=deg(Οˆβ€²β£βˆ—Ynt)=deg(ΞΉβˆ—Οˆβ€²β£βˆ—βˆ‘mjPj).\Deg(D^{n}.Y)=\Deg\left(Y_{n}\right)=\Deg\left(\psi^{\prime\ast}Y_{n}^{t}\right)=\Deg\left(\iota_{\ast}\psi^{\prime\ast}\sum m_{j}P_{j}\right).

Using [Ful98, Proposition 1.7] this equals

deg(Οˆβˆ—ΞΉβˆ—β€²βˆ‘mjPj)=deg(Οˆβˆ—βˆ‘mj[Pj:{𝟎~}]β‹…{𝟎~}).\Deg\left(\psi^{\ast}\iota^{\prime}_{\ast}\sum m_{j}P_{j}\right)=\Deg\left(\psi^{\ast}\sum m_{j}[P_{j}:\{\tilde{\boldsymbol{0}}\}]\cdot\{\tilde{\boldsymbol{0}}\}\right).

As Οˆβˆ’1​({𝟎~})=S\psi^{-1}(\{\tilde{\boldsymbol{0}}\})=S is reduced since ψ\psi is smooth, this amounts to

deg⁑(βˆ‘mj​deg⁑(Pj)​S)=deg⁑(S)β‹…deg⁑(Ynt)=deg⁑(S)β‹…n!β‹…MA⁑(h)​({u}).\Deg\left(\sum m_{j}\Deg(P_{j})S\right)=\Deg(S)\cdot\Deg(Y_{n}^{t})=\Deg(S)\cdot n!\cdot\MA(h)(\{u\}).

This yields the equality we wanted to prove. ∎
