In the second talk, we will define two versions of a local height associated to certain p-adic Galois representations of the Galois group of a local field. We will compare these heights in the unramified case. If time permits, we will also demonstrate examples of these two heights in certain ramified cases in the setting of CM abelian varieties using beautiful results of Colmez as an input.
