The authors' main claim The exact result, obtained by means of a one-loop computation in the dual heterotic theory compactified on T^6, is compared with the perturbation theory on the type II side, and the e^{-1/\lambda} contributions are associated to non-perturbative effects of Euclidean solitons (D-branes) wrapped on K3 x T^2.

The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v2. Results and the main claim are underlined; show every role.

We identify and evaluate a class of physical amplitudes in four-dimensional N=4 superstring theory, which receive, in the weak coupling limit, contributions of order e^{-1/\lambda}, where \lambda is the type II superstring coupling constant. They correspond to four-derivative \Ftilde_1 interaction terms involving the universal type II dilaton supermultiplet. The exact result, obtained by means of a one-loop computation in the dual heterotic theory compactified on T^6, is compared with the perturbation theory on the type II side, and the e^{-1/\lambda} contributions are associated to non-perturbative effects of Euclidean solitons (D-branes) wrapped on K3 x T^2. The ten-dimensional decompactification limit on the type IIB side validates the recent conjecture for the D-instanton-induced R^4 couplings.

The paper

Original abstract

We identify and evaluate a class of physical amplitudes in four-dimensional N=4 superstring theory, which receive, in the weak coupling limit, contributions of order e^{-1/\lambda}, where \lambda is the type II superstring coupling constant. They correspond to four-derivative \Ftilde_1 interaction terms involving the universal type II dilaton supermultiplet. The exact result, obtained by means of a one-loop computation in the dual heterotic theory compactified on T^6, is compared with the perturbation theory on the type II side, and the e^{-1/\lambda} contributions are associated to non-perturbative effects of Euclidean solitons (D-branes) wrapped on K3 x T^2. The ten-dimensional decompactification limit on the type IIB side validates the recent conjecture for the D-instanton-induced R^4 couplings.

Curvature terms in D-brane actions and their M-theory origin
hep-th 1999-03 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

The authors derive the complete curvature-squared terms in D-brane world-volume actions and show that on a D3-brane SL(2,Z) duality forces a D-instanton sum whose coefficient is the logarithm of the Dedekind eta function.

The exact R^4 threshold corrections in IIB string theory on T^2 and T^3 are order-3/2 Eisenstein series of the U-duality groups SL(3,Z) and SL(5,Z), with (p,q)-string instantons supplying the non-perturbative terms.

Taking U-duality as an exact symmetry of toroidally compactified M-theory fixes the BPS multiplet structure and yields mass formulae for 1/2- and 1/4-BPS states, at the cost of predicting states in D<=3 that have no i...
