Using linearized superfields, $R^4$ terms in the Type II superstring effective action compactified on $T^2$ are constructed as integrals in N=2 D=8 superspace. The structure of these superspace integrals allows a simple proof of the $R^4$ non-renormalization theorems which were first conjectured by Green and Gutperle.

  1. Uniqueness of D=8 minimal supergravity with two vector multiplets

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Under a duality symmetry assumption, minimal supergravity coupled to two vector multiplets in D=8 is uniquely fixed in the BPS sector by anomaly cancellation, uplifts, and gauge enhancement.
