We show that the full series of membrane instanton corrections is completely determined by the refined topological string on the Calabi-Yau manifold known as local P-1 x P-1, in the Nekrasov-Shatashvili limit. Our result can be interpreted as a first-principles derivation of the full series of non-perturbative effects for the closed topological string on this Calabi-Yau background. Based on this, we make a proposal for the non-perturbative free energy of topological strings on general, local Calabi-Yau manifolds., Article, JOURNAL OF HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS. 2014(9):168 (2014)}, title = {Non-perturbative effects and the refined topological string}, volume = {2014}, year = {2014} }
