متن کاملRenormalization Ambiguities and Conformal Anomaly in Metric-Scalar Backgrounds
We analyze the problem of the existing ambiguities in the conformal anomaly in theories with external scalar field in curved backgrounds. In particular, we consider the anomaly of self-interacting massive scalar field theory and of Yukawa model in the massless conformal limit. In all cases the ambiguities are related to finite renormalizations of a local non-minimal terms in the effective actio...
متن کاملConformal anomaly in 2 d dilaton – scalar theory
The discrepancy between the anomaly found by Bousso and Hawking and that of other workers is explained by the omission of a zero mode contribution to the effective action.
متن کاملExact Conformal Scalar Field Cosmologies ∗
New exact solutions of Einstein’s gravity coupled to a self-interacting conformal scalar field are derived in this work. Our approach extends a solution-generating technique originally introduced by Bekenstein for massless conformal scalar fields. Solutions are obtained for a FriedmannRobertson-Walker geometry both for the cases of zero and non-zero curvatures, and a variety of interesting feat...
متن کاملScalar Perturbations and Conformal Transformation
The non-minimal coupling of gravity to a scalar field can be transformed into a minimal coupling through a conformal transformation. We show how to connect the results of a perturbation calculation, performed around a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker background solution, before and after the conformal transformation. We work in the synchronous gauge, but we discuss the implications of employing other...
