On the Birational Invariance of the BCOV Torsion of Calabi-Yau Threefolds

Fang et al. (J. Diff. Geom. 80(2):175–259, 2008, Sect. 4, Conj. 4.17) conjecture that a certain spectral string-theoretic invariant of Calabi-Yau threefolds (the BCOV torsion) is a birational invariant. We prove a weak form of this conjecture. The proof combines the arithmetic Riemann-Roch theorem i...
