Toward the Determination of R^3F^2 Terms in M-theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-03-19 v2

Abstract

Higher derivative terms in M-theory are investigated by applying the Noether method. Cancellation of variations under the local supersymmetry is examined to the order linear in F by a computer program. Structure of R^4 terms is uniquely determined and exactly matches with one-loop effective terms in type IIA superstring theory. A part of R^3F^2 terms is also determined.
