In such cases, the exact non-perturbative superpotential of one string theory is given in terms of tree level computations in the other string theory. In particular we find concrete examples which provide the stringy realization of the results of Seiberg and Witten on N = 2 Yang-Mills theory, corrected by gravitational/stringy effects. We also discuss some examples which shed light on how the moduli spaces of different N = 2 heterotic vacua are connected.en-USExact results for N = 2 compactifications of heterotic stringsJournal Article2019-09-2210.1016/0550-3213(95)00307-E
