Given a lisse
-adic
sheaf
on a smooth
proper variety
and a lisse sheaf
on an open dense
in
,
Kato and Saito conjectured a localization formula for the global
-adic epsilon factor
in terms of the global
epsilon factor of
and a certain intersection number associated to
and the Swan
class of
. In this
article, we prove an analog of this conjecture for global de Rham epsilon factors in the classical
setting of
-modules
on smooth projective varieties over a field of characteristic zero.
