We describe a Lie Algebra on the moduli space of non-rigid compact Calabi–Yau threefolds enhanced with differential forms and its relation to the Bershadsky–Cecotti–Ooguri–Vafa holomorphic anomaly equation. In particular, we describe algebraic topological string partition functions, which encode the polynomial structure of holomorphic and non-holomorphic topological string partition functions. Our approach is based on Grothendieck’s algebraic de Rham cohomology and on the algebraic Gauss–Manin connection. In this way, we recover a result of Yamaguchi–Yau and Alim–Länge in an algebraic context. Our proofs use the fact that the special polynomial generators defined using the special geometry of deformation spaces of Calabi–Yau threefolds correspond to coordinates on such a moduli space. We discuss the mirror quintic as an example.
