Conformal Transformation of Equivalence in Quantum Cosmology
نویسنده
چکیده
The theorem of conformal equivalence points out conditions under which the Einstein Lagrangian plus scalar eld can be transformed con-formally into a Lagrangian of higher order. Here the conformal equivalence is investigated for the Friedman model if both theories are quantized. Therefore we introduce an intrinsic formalism to quantize the higher order theory in the framework of the Hamiltonian formalism.

D ec 1 99 7 Conformal relations and Hamiltonian formulation of fourth – order gravity ∗
The conformal equivalence of fourth–order gravity following from a non–linear Lagrangian L(R) to theories of other types is widely known, here we report on a new conformal equivalence of these theories to theories of the same type but with different Lagrangian. For a quantization of fourth-order theories one needs a Hamiltonian formulation of them. One of the possibilities to do so goes back to...
متن کاملConformal Transformation in Gravity
The conformal transformation in the Einstein Hilbert action leads to a new frame where an extra scalar degree of freedom is compensated by the local conformal-like symmetry. We write down a most general action resulting from such transformation and show that it covers both general relativity and conformally coupled to gravity scalar field as the particular cases. On quantum level the equivalenc...
متن کاملRelational Motivation for Conformal Operator Ordering in Quantum Cosmology
Operator-ordering in quantum cosmology is a major as-yet unsettled ambiguity with not only formal but also physical consequences. We determine the Lagrangian origin of the conformal invariance that underlies the conformal operator-ordering choice in quantum cosmology. It is particularly naturally and simply manifest in relationalist producttype actions (such as the Jacobi action for mechanics o...
متن کاملOn conformal transformation of special curvature of Kropina metrics
An important class of Finsler metric is named Kropina metrics which is defined by Riemannian metric α and 1-form β which have many applications in physic, magnetic field and dynamic systems. In this paper, conformal transformations of χ-curvature and H-curvature of Kropina metrics are studied and the conditions that preserve this quantities are investigated. Also it is shown that in the ...
متن کاملAdS/CFT EQUIVALENCE TRANSFORMATION
We show that any conformal field theory in d-dimensional Minkowski space, in a phase with spontaneously broken conformal symmetry and with the dilaton among its fields, can be rewritten in terms of the static gauge (d − 1)-brane on AdS(d+1) by means of an invertible change of variables. This nonlinear holographic transformation maps the Minkowski space coordinates onto the brane worldvolume one...
