The dominant and subdominant terms in the expansions of the metrics close to non-smooth fibers are shown to be related to well-known topological invariants of singularities, such as limit Hodge structures, vanishing cycles and log-canonical thresholds. We also describe corresponding invariants for more general degenerating families in the case of the Quillen metric.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-11-09T17:16:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14J32", "58K55", "58J52", "58K65", "14J70" ], "keywords": [ "hodge bundles", "singularities", "complex projective calabi-yau varieties", "limit hodge structures", "non-smooth fibers" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
