## Abstract

We discuss heterotic corrections to quartic internal U(1) gauge couplings and check duality by calculating one-loop open string diagrams and identifying the D-instanton sum in the dual type I picture. We also compute SO(8)^4 threshold corrections and finally R^2 corrections in type I theory.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
