Best Answer
The error is caused by line 113 in the
*.aux
file, not the.tex
file. The end of line 113 looks like a label definition with an entity (section, equation, figure, ...) numbered with1
on page 10.The label name in
\label{...}
must survive a\csname ...\endcsname
. Thus, my suspicion is that the label name contains stuff (non-ASCII letters, ...) that breaks in the.aux
file.
