A variant of Néron models over curves (Q625497)

The authors study a variant of the Néron models over curves. Its identity component is closely related to the Zucker extension of the family of intermediate Jacobians and the total space is a complex Lie group over the base curve. In the unipotent monodromy case, the image of the map to the Clemens extension coincides with the Néron model defined recently by Green, Griffiths and Kerr. In the case of families of abelian varieties over curves, it coincides with the classical Néron model in the the algebraic case.
