Description
These objects, in some form or another,  have been studied the
last twenty years by Rothstein, Laumon, Loeser-Sabbah,  and more recently,
by Bhatt, Schnell and Scholze. A formal definition will be given, and
realizations, when the semi-abelian variety is a torus, will be
discussed.  The talk is based on work in progress with Deepam Patel.
