Abstract

We discuss the relevance of Eisenstein series for representing certain G()-invariant string theory amplitudes which receive corrections from BPS states only. The Eisenstein series are constructed using G()-invariant mass formulae and are manifestly invariant modular functions on the symmetric space K \\ G() of non-compact type, with K the maximal compact subgroup of G(). In particular, we show how Eisenstein series of the T-duality group SO(d,d,) can be used to represent one- and g-loop amplitudes in compactified string theory. We also obtain their non-perturbative extensions in terms of the Eisenstein series of the U-duality group Ed+1(d+1)().
