Constraining Higher Derivative Supergravity with Scattering Amplitudes

Abstract

We study supersymmetry constraints on higher derivative deformations of type IIB supergravity by consideration of superamplitudes. Combining constraints of on-shell supervertices and basic results from string perturbation theory, we give a simple argument for the non-renormalization theorem of Green and Sethi, and some of its generalizations.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures; references ad
