摘要：

We define the topological free energy for string compactifications, which is relevant for the discussion of perturbative as well as non-perturbative effects in string theory. This moduli-dependent functional, originating from the integration over massive string modes, is determined by automorphic functions of the target-space duality group. We explicitly construct these automorphic functions for symmetric orbifold and Calabi-Yau compactifications.
