Calculation and modular properties of multi-loop superstring amplitudes    [PDF]

G. S. Danilov

Multi-loop superstring amplitude are calculated in the convenient gauge where Grassmann moduli are carried by the 2D gravitino field. Generally, instead of the modular symmetry, the amplitudes hold the symmetry under modular transformations added by relevant transformations of the 2D local supersymmetry. If a number of loops is larger than 3, the integration measures are not modular forms. In this case the expression for the amplitude contains an integral over the bound of the fundamental region of the modular group.
