Abstract

We prove the existence of global sections trivializing the Hodge bundles on the Hodge metric completion space of the Torelli space of Calabi–Yau manifolds, a global splitting property of these Hodge bundles. We also prove that a compact Calabi–Yau manifold can not be deformed to its complex conjugate. These results answer certain open questions in the subject. A general result about certain period map to be bi-holomorphic from the Hodge metric completion space of the Torelli space of Calabi–Yau type manifolds to their period domains is proved and applied to the cases of K3 surfaces, cubic fourfolds, and hyperkähler manifolds.
