Previously, using twistor methods, only a class of D-instantons (D2-instantons wrapping A-cycles) was incorporated exactly and the rest was treated only linearly. We go beyond the linear approximation and give a set of holomorphic functions which, through a known procedure, capture the effect of D-instantons at all orders. Moreover, we show that for a sector where all instanton charges have vanishing symplectic invariant scalar product, the hypermultiplet metric can be computed explicitly.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2013-05-09T23:02:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "exact results", "d-instantons", "vanishing symplectic invariant scalar product", "hypermultiplet moduli space", "calabi-yau compactifications" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Journal of Physics A Mathematical General", "year": 2009, "month": "Aug", "volume": 42, "number": 33, "pages": 335402 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 32, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 813434, "adsabs": "2009JPhA...42G5402A" } } }
