Higher derivative corrections to the low-energy effective action of type IIA/B string theory and M-theory

The type IIA and type IIB supergravity actions in d = 10 dimensions are the low-energy effective theories of type IIA and IIB string theory. In addition, the unique eleven dimensional supergravity theory is the low-energy effective action of M-theory. Higher order corrections to the low-energy effec...
