We give an adelic description of the reduction map for Gan-Gross-Prasad diagonal cycles on Shimura varieties attached to unitary groups. These cycles can be thought of as higher-dimensional analogues of Heegner points, and the study of their reduction uses both geometric and automorphic analogues of the study of reduction maps on modular curves. This is joint work with D. Jetchev.
