BCOV invariant and birational equivalence (English)
[ Abstract ]
Bershadsky, Cecotti, Ooguri and Vafa constructed a real valued invariant for Calabi-Yau manifolds, which is now called BCOV invariant. Now we consider a pair (X,Y), where X is a Kaehler manifold and $Y ¥subseteq X$ is a canonical divisor. In this talk, we extend the BCOV invariant to such pairs. The extended BCOV invariant is well-behaved under birational equivalence. We expect that these considerations may eventually lead to a positive answer to Yoshikawa's conjecture that the BCOV invariant for Calabi-Yau threefold is a birational invariant.
