Average Effective Potential for the Conformal Factor
In a four dimensional theory of gravity with lagrangian quadratic in curvature and torsion, we compute the effective action for metrics of the form gμν = ρ δμν , with ρ constant. Using standard field-theoretic methods we find that one loop quantum effects produce a nontrivial effective potential for ρ. We explain this unexpected result by showing how our regularization procedure differs from th...
متن کاملEffective action method for the Langevin equation.
In this paper we present a formulation of the nonlinear stochastic differential equation which allows for systematic approximations. The method is not restricted to the asymptotic, i.e., stationary, regime but can be applied to derive effective equations describing the relaxation of the system from arbitrary initial conditions. The basic idea is to reduce the nonlinear Langevin equation to an e...
متن کاملConformal fixed point, cosmological constant, and quintessence.
We connect a possible solution for the "cosmological constant problem" to the existence of a (postulated) conformal fixed point in a fundamental theory. The resulting cosmology leads to quintessence, where the present acceleration of the expansion of the universe is linked to a crossover in the flow of coupling constants.
متن کاملCritical Exponents from the Effective Average Action
We compute the critical behaviour of three-dimensional scalar theories using a new exact non-perturbative evolution equation. Our values for the critical exponents agree well with previous precision estimates.
متن کاملZero-Sum Average Semi-Markov Games: Fixed-Point Solutions of the Shapley Equation
This paper deals with zero-sum average semi-Markov games with Borel state and action spaces, and unbounded payoffs and mean holding times. A solution of the Sapley equation is obtained via the Banach Fixed Point Theorem assumming that the model satisfies a Lyapunov-like condition, a growth hypothesis on the payoff function and the mean holding time, besides standard continuity and compactness r...
