Abstract

We consider regular Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in N-dimensional smooth toric varieties. On such a hypersurface in the neighborhood of the large complex structure limit point we construct a fibration over a sphere SN-1 whose generic fibers are tori TN-1. Also for certain one-parameter families of such hypersurfaces we show that the monodromy transformation is induced by a translation of the TN-1 fibration by a section. Finally we construct a dual fibration and provide some evidence that it describes the mirror family.
