The paper under review considers Calabi-Yau threefolds of Borcea-Voisin type, that is, Calabi-Yau threefolds obtained as a crepant resolution of a quotient \((S\times E)/(\alpha_S\times \alpha_E)\). Here \(S\) is a \(K3\) surface, \(E\) an elliptic curve, and \(\alpha_S\) (resp. \(\alpha_E\)) is an automorphism of \(S\) (resp. \(E\)) acting on the period of \(S\) (resp. \(E\)), and having the same order \(n\in\{2,3,4,6\}\). Such a Borcea-Voisin type Calabi-Yau threefold is denoted by \(X_n\). The cases \(n=2\) is the classical Borcea-Voisin Calabi-Yau threefolds, and the case \(n=3\) has been studied by \textit{J. C. Rohde} [Cyclic coverings, Calabi-Yau manifolds and complex multiplication. Berlin: Springer (2009; Zbl 1168.14001)]. This article constructs Calabi-Yau threefolds \(X\) of Borcea-Voisin type \(X_n\) for \(n\in\{2,3,4,6\}\) and computes their Hodge numbers. Some pairs of Hodge numbers are new. This construction rediscovers previously known results for \(n=2\) and \(n=3\). Several examples are discussed for the cases \(n=4\) and \(n=6\). Then the paper considers the family of Calabi-Yau threefold \(X\) of type \(X_n\) for \(n=4, 6\) without maximal unipotent monodromy. In some of these case, it is shown that the variation of Hodge structures of the family of Calabi-Yau threefolds of type \(X_n\) is essentially the variation of Hodge structures of a family of curves. Each Calabi-Yau threefold \(X\) of Borcea-Voisin type \(X_n\) is endowed with a map \({\mathcal{E}}_n: X \to S/\alpha_S\) where generic fiber is an elliptic curve isomorphic to \(E\). The study of this map is one of the main tools of this article. In fact, the paper presents detailed studies of this map for all \(n\in\{2,3,4,6\}\). \({\mathcal{E}}_n\) is an elliptic fibration with section if and only if \(\alpha_S^j\) does not fix isolated points for any \(j=1,\dots, n-1\). On the other hand, if \(\alpha_S^j\) fixes some isolated points for a certain \(j\), the fibers of \({\mathcal{E}}_n\) over the image of these points in \(S/\alpha_S\) are the unique fibers which are not of Kodaira type, and they contain divisors. In case \(S/\alpha_S\) is smooth, a Weierstrass equation for \({\mathcal{E}}_n\) is presented.

    The paper under review considers Calabi-Yau threefolds of Borcea-Voisin type, that is, Calabi-Yau threefolds obtained as a crepant resolution of a quotient \((S\times E)/(\alpha_S\times \alpha_E)\). Here \(S\) is a \(K3\) surface, \(E\) an elliptic curve, and \(\alpha_S\) (resp. \(\alpha_E\)) is an automorphism of \(S\) (resp. \(E\)) acting on the period of \(S\) (resp. \(E\)), and having the same order \(n\in\{2,3,4,6\}\). Such a Borcea-Voisin type Calabi-Yau threefold is denoted by \(X_n\). The cases \(n=2\) is the classical Borcea-Voisin Calabi-Yau threefolds, and the case \(n=3\) has been studied by \textit{J. C. Rohde} [Cyclic coverings, Calabi-Yau manifolds and complex multiplication. Berlin: Springer (2009; Zbl 1168.14001)]. This article constructs Calabi-Yau threefolds \(X\) of Borcea-Voisin type \(X_n\) for \(n\in\{2,3,4,6\}\) and computes their Hodge numbers. Some pairs of Hodge numbers are new. This construction rediscovers previously known results for \(n=2\) and \(n=3\). Several examples are discussed for the cases \(n=4\) and \(n=6\). Then the paper considers the family of Calabi-Yau threefold \(X\) of type \(X_n\) for \(n=4, 6\) without maximal unipotent monodromy. In some of these case, it is shown that the variation of Hodge structures of the family of Calabi-Yau threefolds of type \(X_n\) is essentially the variation of Hodge structures of a family of curves. Each Calabi-Yau threefold \(X\) of Borcea-Voisin type \(X_n\) is endowed with a map \({\mathcal{E}}_n: X \to S/\alpha_S\) where generic fiber is an elliptic curve isomorphic to \(E\). The study of this map is one of the main tools of this article. In fact, the paper presents detailed studies of this map for all \(n\in\{2,3,4,6\}\). \({\mathcal{E}}_n\) is an elliptic fibration with section if and only if \(\alpha_S^j\) does not fix isolated points for any \(j=1,\dots, n-1\). On the other hand, if \(\alpha_S^j\) fixes some isolated points for a certain \(j\), the fibers of \({\mathcal{E}}_n\) over the image of these points in \(S/\alpha_S\) are the unique fibers which are not of Kodaira type, and they contain divisors. In case \(S/\alpha_S\) is smooth, a Weierstrass equation for \({\mathcal{E}}_n\) is presented.
