For a CM-fieldK, Shimura defined the period symbolpK by factorizing periods of abelian varieties with complex multiplication. We define the absolute period symbolgK using division values of the multiple gamma function and conjecture that pK coincides with gK up to the multiplication by algebraic numbers. Taking the action of Gal(Q Q) into account, we present a refined version of this conjecture. We show that these conjectures are consistently formulated and discuss various numerical examples which support our conjectures strongly. In our previous paper (Y2), we formulated a conjecture which gives an expres- sion of the derivatives of Artin L-functions at s = 0 by CM-periods. However we could not express CM-periods themselves by such a conjecture. (This point will be shown explicitly by an example in 7. See also the discussion in the beginning of (Y2), 2.) In the present paper, we shall give a conjecture which expresses CM-periods by the values of the multiple gamma function at division points, and present various numerical examples which support it. Let us explain our ideas and the contents of this paper more precisely. Let K be a CM-field, JK be the set of all isomorphisms of K into C and IK be the free abelian group generated by JK. For every , IK, Shimura defined (S2), (S3) the CM-period pK( , ) C , which is uniquely determined mod Q.T he fundamental properties of the period symbol pK will be reviewed in 1. For a, b C, let us write a b if b =0a nda b Q.U singpK, we can write the Chowla-Selberg formula as
