I'll present a non-perturbative description of this moduli space, which crucially relies on the twistor approach to quaternionic geometries. Using this approach, I'll show how one can incorporate contributions from all D-brane instantons and give some partial results on instanton effects generated by NS5-brane. I'll argue that, ignoring the latter contributions, the moduli space corresponds to an integrable system. %G English %L hal-00543669 %U https://hal.science/hal-00543669 %~ IN2P3 %~ LPTA %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-MONTP2 %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ UM1-UM2
