Modulus of a rational map into a commutative algebraic group

For a rational map $\phi: X \to G$ from a normal algebraic variety $X$ to a commutative algebraic group $G$, we define the modulus of $\phi$ as an effective divisor on $X$. We study the properties of the modulus. This work generalizes the known theories for curves to higher dimensional varieties.Comment: 17 page

Analyticity of the closures of some Hodge theoretic subspaces

In this paper, we prove a general theorem concerning the analyticity of the closure of a subspace defined by a family of variations of mixed Hodge structures, which includes the analyticity of the zero loci of degenerating normal functions. For the proof, we use a moduli of the valuative version of log mixed Hodge structures
