EFTs and ExFTs

Abstract: I will discuss how exceptional field theory can be used to compute aspects of the low-energy effective field theory description of type II string theory. Since exceptional field theory also includes the description of (exotic) branes, one can also determine the exact non-perturbative contributions to certain higher-derivative couplings. Emphasis will be put on recent advances for 1/8-BPS couplings that are connected to tropical limits of string invariants at genus two.
