F-theory at order '^3

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2635955



Abstract: We study the effective physics of F-theory at order alpha'3 in derivative expansion. We show that the ten-dimensional type IIB eight-derivative couplings involving the graviton and the axio-dilaton naturally descend from pure gravity in twelve dimensions. Upon compactification on elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau fourfolds, the non-trivial vacuum profile for the axio-dilaton leads to a new, genuinely N=1, alpha'3 correction to the four-dimensional effective action.
