The local Gan-Gross-Prasad conjectures concern certain branching or restriction problems between representations of real or p-adic Lie groups. In its simplest form it predicts certain multiplicity-one results for "extended" L-packets. In a recent series of papers, Waldspurger has settled the conjecture for special orthogonal groups over p-adic field. In this talk, I will present a proof of the conjecture for unitary groups which has the advantage of working equally well over archimedean and non-archimedean fields.
