Heights of Special Points on Quaternionic Shimura Varieties

Let $B\mathrm{/}F$ be a quaternion algebra over a totally real number field. We give an explicit formula for heights of special points on the quaternionic Shimura variety associated with $B$ in terms of Faltings heights of CM abelian varieties. Special points correspond to CM fields $E$ and partial CM-types $\phi \subset \mathrm{H}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{m}(E,\mathbb{C})$. We then show that our height is compatible with the canonical height of a partial CM-type defined by Pila, Shankar, and Tsimerman. This gives another proof that the height of a partial CM-type is bounded subpolynomially in terms of the discriminant of $E$.
