In the resonant case, there are necessarily logarithmic solutions. We apply the result to Picard-Fuchs equations of certain one--parameter families of Calabi--Yau manifolds, known as the mirror quartic and the mirror quintic.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-02-03T17:37:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "resonant case", "analytic continuation", "hypergeometric functions", "third regular singularity", "hypergeometric differential equation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 32, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2016arXiv160201384S", "inspire": 1419278 } } }
