Néron models of Green-Griffiths-Kerr and log Néron models (Q638788)

Let \(J \to \Delta^*\) be a family of intermediate Jacobians arising from a variation of polarized Hodge structures of weight \(-1\) with a unipotent monodromy of a punctured disk. The intermediate Jacobians are isomorphic to the extension groups of the Hodge structures in the category of mixed Hodge structures, and a section of \(J \to \Delta^*\) is a variation of mixed Hodge structures. For a variation of Hodge structure over a punctured disk, \textit{M. Green, P. Griffiths} and \textit{M. Kerr} [Compos. Math. 146, No. 2, 288--366 (2010; Zbl 1195.14006)] introduced a Néron model which is a Hausdorff space that includes values of admissible normal functions. On the other hand, another Néron model was introduced by \textit{K. Kato} and \textit{S. Usui} [Classifying spaces of degenerating polarized Hodge structures. Annals of Mathematics Studies 169. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press (2009; Zbl 1172.14002)] as a logarithmic manifold using the log mixed Hodge theory. In this paper the author constructs a homeomorphism between these two models.
