    Let \(X\) and \(Y\) be fibers of two families of Calabi-Yau 3-folds which are mirror of each other. By a work of Gukov and Vafa \(X\) and \(Y\) yield a rational conformal field theory if and only if both fibers have complex multiplication (CM). A family of Calabi-Yau manifolds over a Shimura variety has a dense set of CM fibers, if the variations of Hodge structures is related to the Shimura datum of the base space in a natural way as described in a previous paper of the author. In the paper Rohde gives examples of families of Calabi-Yau 3-folds over Shimura varieties, whose mirror families contain subfamilies over Shimura varieties. He obtains dense sets of CM fibers by using the fact that the base space is a Shimura variety.
