D’Auria, R.; Ferrara, S. String quantum symmetries from Picard Fuchs equations and their monodromy. (English) Zbl 0790.14008 Ann. Phys. 231, No. 1, 84-109 (1994). Summary: Local and global properties of the moduli space of Calabi-Yau type compactifications determine the low energy parameters of the string effective action. We show that the moduli space geometry is entirely encoded in the Picard-Fuchs equations for the periods of the Calabi-Yau \(H^{(3)}\)-cohomology.
