• The Torelli locus and special subvarieties (2011, result): “It should be mentioned that there is some connection between these examples and the theory of Deligne and Mostow in [26], [51]; see also Looijenga’s overview paper [39].”
• Cyclic Coverings, Calabi-Yau Manifolds and Complex Multiplication (2007, background): “By [30], Section 4, one can identify the fractional period map concerning L1 with some multivalued map, which is called Schwarz map.”
