Exact U-duality Eisenstein-series conjecture for toroidal type II R4R^4 couplings

From papers

Let type II string theory be compactified on TdT^d, equivalently M-theory on Td+1T^{d+1}, and let Ed+1(d+1)(Z)E_{d+1(d+1)}(\mathbb{Z}) be the U-duality group. Denote by Estring;s=3/2Ed+1(d+1)(Z)\mathcal{E}^{E_{d+1(d+1)}(\mathbb{Z})}_{\mathrm{string};s=3/2} the Eisenstein series in the string-multiplet representation. Exact R4R^4 coupling conjecture. The exact four-graviton R4R^4 coupling is, up to a factor of Newton's constant,

fR4=Vd+1lM9Estring;s=3/2Ed+1(d+1)(Z).f_{R^4}=\frac{V_{d+1}}{l_M^9}\mathcal{E}^{E_{d+1(d+1)}(\mathbb{Z})}_{\mathrm{string};s=3/2}.

This is proposed as a non-perturbative U-duality completion; the source supplies no resolution evidence.
