From little string free energies towards modular graph functions

Abstract We study the structure of the non-perturbative free energy of a one-parameter class of little string theories (LSTs) of A-type in the so-called unrefined limit. These theories are engineered by N M5-branes probing a transverse flat space. By analysing a number of examples, we observe a patt...
