Manifestation of metric renormalization in quantum R–gravity
The renormalization group method in R2-gravity without matter fields is discussed. A criterion for the existence of the renormalization constant for the metric has been found, two-loop higher order poles have been calculated, a relation which allows us to find the one-loop renormalization constant of the Newtonian constant has been suggested.

متن کاملA non-renormalization theorem for conformal anomalies
We provide a non-renormalization theorem for the coefficients of the conformal anomaly associated with operators with vanishing anomalous dimensions. Such operators include conserved currents and chiral operators in superconformal field theories. We illustrate the theorem by computing the conformal anomaly of 2-point functions both by a computation in the conformal field theory and via the adS/...
متن کاملThe Renormalization Group flow of unimodular f(R) gravity
Unimodular gravity is classically equivalent to General Relativity. This equivalence extends to actions which are functions of the curvature scalar. At the quantum level, the dynamics could differ. Most importantly, the cosmological constant is not a coupling in the unimodular action, providing a new vantage point from which to address the cosmological constant fine-tuning problem. Here, a quan...
متن کاملOn the renormalization group flow of f(R)-gravity
We use the functional renormalization group equation for quantum gravity to construct a nonperturbative flow equation for modified gravity theories of the form S = ∫ ddx √ gf(R). Based on this equation we show that certain gravitational interactions monomials can be consistently decoupled from the renormalization group (RG) flow and reproduce recent results on the asymptotic safety conjecture. ...
متن کاملOn the equivalence theorem in f(R)-type generalized gravity
We investigate whether the equivalence theorem in f(R)-type gravity is valid also in quantum theory. It is shown that, if the canonical quantization is assumed, the equivalence does not hold in quantum theory.
