چکیده
We compute the functional determinant quotient (det P h)=(det P g) for the Paneitz operator P in conformally related Riemannian metrics g; h, and discuss related positivity questions.

00 1 Some issues related to conformal anomaly induced effective action
Some issues related to quantum anomaly induced effects due to matter are considered. Explicit examples corresponding to quantum creation of d4 dilatonic AdS Universe and of d2 dilatonic AdS Black Hole (BH) are discussed. Motivated by holographic RG, in a similar approach, it is shown that, starting from a 5 dimensional AdS Universe, 4-dimensional de Sitter or AdS world is generated on the bound...

A new N = 1 superfield model in D = 4 flat superspace is suggested. This model describes dynamics of chiral compensator and can be treated as a low-energy limit of D = 4, N = 1 quantum superfield supergravity. Renormalization structure of this model is studied and one-loop counterterms are calculated. It is shown that the theory is infrared free. An effective action for the model under consider...

متن کاملOperator Mixing in N = 4 Sym: the Konishi Anomaly Revisited
In the context of the superconformal N = 4 SYM theory the Konishi anomaly can be viewed as the descendant K10 of the Konishi multiplet in the 10 of SU(4), carrying the anomalous dimension of the multiplet. Another descendant O10 with the same quantum numbers, but this time without anomalous dimension, is obtained from the protected half-BPS operator O20′ (the stress-tensor multiplet). Both K10 ...
