两环面上紧化的M-理论有效作用量中的R4项是由II型超弦理论中的单圈结果与Sl(2,Z)对偶性相结合而产生的。该表达式精确地再现了在圆上紧化的II型弦理论的有效作用量中的树级和单圈R4项,以及预期的瞬子修正的无限和。这个猜想意味着在十维弦II型理论中的R4项除了一个圈之外没有微扰修正,在十维IIA理论中也没有非微扰修正。此外,11维M理论极限存在,其中有一个R4项完全源自IIA型理论中的单圈贡献,并通过超对称性与11维形式的C(3)R4相关。简要讨论了T3上紧化的推广以及对D弦和D粒子相互作用中非重整化定理的意义。
The R4terms in the effective action for M-theory compactified on a two-torus are motivated by combining one-loop results in type II superstring theories with the Sl(2, Z) duality symmetry. The conjectured expression reproduces precisely the tree-level and one-loop R4terms in the effective action of the type II string theories compactified on a circle, together with the expected infinite sum of instanton corrections. This conjecture implies that the R4terms in ten-dimensional string type II theories receive no perturbative corrections beyond one loop and there are also no non-perturbative corrections in the ten-dimensional IIA theory. Furthermore, the eleven-dimensional M-theory limit exists, in which there is an R4term that originates entirely from the one-loop contribution in the type IIA theory and is related by supersymmetry to the eleven-form C(3)R4. The generalization to compactification on T3as well as implications for non-renormalization theorems in D-string and D-particle interactions are briefly discussed.
