Abstract

Following C. Simpson, we show that every variation of graded-polarized mixed Hodge structure defined over ℚ carries a natural Higgs bundle structure ∂ + θ which is invariant under the ℂ* action studied in [20]. We then specialize our construction to the context of [6], and show that the resulting Higgs field θ determines (and is determined by) the Gromov-Witten potential of the underlying family of Calabi-Yau threefolds.
