Abstract: We give a Hodge-theoretic criterion for a Calabi--Yau variety to have finite Weil--Petersson distance on higher dimensional bases up to a set of codimension $geq2$. The main tool is variation of Hodge structures and variation of mixed Hodge structures. We also give a description on the codimension 2 locus for the moduli space of Calabi--Yau threefolds. We prove that the points lying on exactly one finite and one infinite divisor have infinite Weil--Petersson distance along angular slices. Finally, by giving a classification of the dominant term of the candidates of the Weil--Petersson potential, we prove that the points on the intersection of exact two infinite divisors have infinite distance measured by the metric induced from the dominant terms of the candidates of the Weil--Petersson potential.
