Non-Perturbative Nekrasov Partition Function from String Theory
Ignatios Antoniadis, Ioannis Florakis, Stefan Hohenegger +2
We calculate gauge instanton corrections to a class of higher derivative string effective couplings introduced in [1]. We work in Type I string theory compactified on K3xT2 and rea…
Holography and Conformal Anomaly Matching
Alejandro Cabo-Bizet, Edi Gava, K. S. Narain
We discuss various issues related to the understanding of the conformal anomaly matching in CFT from the dual holographic viewpoint. First, we act with a PBH diffeomorphism on a ge…
Worldsheet Realization of the Refined Topological String
I. Antoniadis, I. Florakis, S. Hohenegger +2
A worldsheet realization of the refined topological string is proposed in terms of physical string amplitudes that compute generalized N=2 F-terms of the form F_{g,n} W^{2g}Y^{2n}…
