Local and global theory of the moduli of polarized Calabi-Yau manifolds.
In this paper we review the moduli theory of polarized CY manifolds. We briefly sketched Kodaira-Spencer-Kuranishi local deformation theory developed by the author and G. Tian. We also construct the Teichmüller space of polarized CY manifolds following the ideas of I. R. Shafarevich and I. I. Piatetski-Shapiro. We review the fundamental result of E. Viehweg about the existence of the course moduli space of polarized CY manifolds as a quasi-projective variety. Recently S. Donaldson computed the moment...
