چکیده

We review our recent work on the existence of a new independent R4 term, at one loop, in the type IIA and heterotic effective actions, after reduction to four dimensions, besides the usual square of the Bel-Robinson tensor. We discuss its supersymmetrization. 1 R4 terms in ten dimensions The superstring α effective actions contain two independent terms X,Z which involve only the fourth power of the Weyl tensor, given by X := t8t8W, Z := −ε10ε10W. (1) For the heterotic string two other R4 terms Y1 and Y2 appear at order α [1, 2, 3]: Y1 := t8 ( trW )2 , Y2 := t8trW = X 24 + Y1 4 . (2) Each t8 tensor has eight free spacetime indices, acting in four two-index antisymmetric tensors as defined in [4, 5]. The effective action of type IIB theory must be written, because of its well known SL(2,Z) invariance, as a product of a single linear combination of order α invariants and an overall function of Ω = C + ie, C being the axion and φ the dilaton. The R4 terms of this effective action are given in the string frame by 1 √−gLIIB ∣

A fundamental task for the heterotic superstring theory is the determination of the effective action describing the physics of massless string excitations at low energies. This is necessary for the phenomenological applications of string theory, in particular for the unification of gauge interactions and for the gaugino condensation mechanism of supersymmetry breaking. In this talk, I report on...

We consider the effective superpotential of N = 2, U(N) gauge model where N = 2 supersymmetry is spontaneously broken to N = 1. By the computation of loop diagrams, we obtain a formula for the effective superpotential which is deformed from the well-known form of the effective superpotential of N = 1, U(N) gauge model with a tree level superpotential.
