Construction of R4 terms in N = 2 D = 8 superspace

Using linearized superfields, R4 terms in the Type II superstring effective action compactified on T2 are constructed as integrals in N = 2 D = 8 superspace. The structure of these superspace integrals allows a simple proof of the R4 non-renormalization theorems which were first conjectured by Green and Gutperle. © 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.

This work is a review of the Negative Dimension Integration Method as a powerful tool for the computation of the radiative corrections present in Quantum Field Perturbation Theory. This method is applicable in the context of Dimensional Regularization and it provides exact solutions for Feynman integrals with both dimensional parameter and propagator exponents generalized. These solutions are presentedintheformoflinearcombinationsofhypergeometricfunctionswhosedomains of convergence are related to the analytic structure of the Feynman Integral. Each solution is connected to the others trough analytic continuations. Besides presenting and discussing the general algorithm of the method in a detailed way, we offer concrete applications to scalar one-loop and two-loop integrals as well as to the one-loop renormalizationofQuantumElectrodynamics (QED)
