Abstract
We propose (and ) invariant conjectures for all couplings of Type IIB strings on (and ), generalizing conjectures of Green and Gutperle (and Kiritsis and Pioline) for the coupling. A strong check for our conjectures is that on at weak coupling, they reproduce the multiloop scattering amplitudes which had been previously computed using N=2 strings in the N=4 topological formalism. Applications to string production in a background field, generalizing Schwinger's computation for pair production in constant field, are suggested.
