We consider families ${\cal F}(\Delta)$ consisting of complex $(n-1)$-dimensional projective algebraic compactifications of $\Delta$-regular affine hypersurfaces $Z_f$ defined by Laurent polynomials $f$ with a fixed $n$-dimensional Newton polyhedron $\Delta$ in $n$-dimensional algebraic torus ${\bf T} =({\bf C}^*)^n$. If the family ${\cal F}(\Delta)$ defined by a Newton polyhedron $\Delta$ consists of $(n-1)$-dimensional Calabi-Yau varieties, then the dual, or polar, polyhedron $\Delta^*$ in…
