Abstract. It is known that moduli spaces of Calabi-Yau (CY) manifolds are special Kähler manifolds. This structure determines the corresponding low-energy effective theory which arises in superstring compactifications on CY manifolds. In the case, where CY manifold is given as a hypersurface in the weighted projective space, we propose a new procedure for computing the Kähler potential of the moduli space. Our method is based on the fact that the moduli space of CY manifolds is a marginal subspace of the Frobenius manifold which arises on the deformation space of the corresponding Landau-Ginzburg superpotential.
