For each natural odd number n ≥ 3, we exhibit a maximal family of n-dimensional Calabi–Yau manifolds whose Yukawa coupling length is 1. As a consequence, Shafarevich’s conjecture holds true for these families. Moreover, it follows from Deligne and Mostow (Publ. Math. IHÉS, 63:5–89, 1986) and Mostow (Publ. Math. IHÉS, 63:91–106, 1986; J. Am. Math. Soc., 1(3):555–586, 1988) that, for n = 3, it can be partially compactified to a Shimura family of ball type, and for n = 5,9, there is a sub Q-PVHS of the family uniformizing a Zariski open subset of an arithmetic ball quotient

We consider the Laplacian in a strip R(0,d) with the boundary condition which is Dirichlet except at the segment of a length 2a of one of the boundaries where it is switched to Neumann. This operator is known to have a non-empty and simple discrete spectrum for any a>0. There is a sequence 0<a1<a2< of critical values at which new eigenvalues emerge from the continuum when the Neumann window expands. We find the asymptotic behavior of these eigenvalues around the thresholds showing that the gap is in the leading order proportional to (aan)2 with an explicit coefficient expressed in terms of the corresponding threshold-energy resonance eigenfunction.

Let and be a real -uniformly smooth Banach space, be a nonempty closed convex subset of and be a Lipschitz continuous mapping. Let and be bounded sequences in and and be real sequences in satisfying some restrictions. Let be the sequence generated from an arbitrary by the Ishikawa iteration process with errors: , , . Sufficient and necessary conditions for the strong convergence to a fixed point of is established.
