On Higher Derivative Gravity In Two Dimensions
The 2D gravity described by the action which is an arbitrary function of the scalar curvature f(R) is considered. The classical vacuum solutions are analyzed. The one-loop renormalizability is studied. For the function f = R lnR the model coupled with scalar (conformal) matter is exactly integrated and is shown to describe a black hole of the 2D dilaton gravity type. The influence of one-loop q...
متن کاملOn higher-derivative dilatonic gravity in two dimensions
We discuss lowering the order of the two-dimensional scalar-tensor R2 quantum gravity, by mapping the most general version of the model to a multi-dilaton gravity, which is essentially the sigma-model coupled with the Jackiw-Teitelboim-like gravity. In the continuation of our previous research, we calculate the divergent part of the one-loop effective action in a 2D scalar-tensor (dilatonic) gr...
متن کاملOn the renormalization of higher derivative two dimensional gravity
The fourth derivative models for two dimensional gravity are shown to be equivalent to the special version of the nonlinear sigma models coupled to 2d quantum gravity. The reduction consists in the introduction of the auxiliary scalar fields and can be performed in an explicit way for both metric and general metric-dilaton cases. In view of this we can evaluate the structure of possible counter...
متن کاملBlack Hole Entropy for Two Higher Derivative Theories of Gravity
The dark energy issue is attracting the attention of an increasing number of physicists all over the world. Among the possible alternatives to explain what as been named the “Mystery of the Millennium” are the so-called Modified Theories of Gravity. A crucial test for such models is represented by the existence and (if this is the case) the properties of their black hole solutions. Nowadays, to...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional higher-derivative gravity and conformal transformations
We consider the lagrangian L = F (R) in classical (=non-quantized) two-dimensional fourth-order gravity and give new relations to Einstein’s theory with a non-minimally coupled scalar field. We distinguish between scale-invariant lagrangians and scale-invariant field equations. L is scale-invariant for F = c1R k+1 and a divergence for F = c2R. The field equation is scale-invariant not only for ...
